Hi everyone,
In November I sent a mail to this list asking how to get the mail From header
right, I solved that but I still have a problem. The solution was using
the -f option like this:
$frommail = "[EMAIL PROTECTED]";
mail("$to", "$subject", "$message", "$headers","-f$frommail");
The from address is correct now but the displayed name is still www-data (or
apache, depends on the server configuration). The header looks like this:
From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] (www-data)
Is there anyway to change this?
Thanks, regards Chantal
$frommail = "[EMAIL PROTECTED]";
mail("$to", "$subject", "$message", "$headers","-f$frommail");
is an extremely ugly way to pass variables IMO.
$frommail = "[EMAIL PROTECTED]";
mail($to, $subject, $message, $headers, "-f".$frommail);
is a lot nicer IMO. Anyway, to get back to you. The "name" you want
would be supplied by having the header
From: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
in the following format:
From: MyName Goes Here <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
