Also, look at the configuration section of the manual for the Apache directives, some of which can be used in .htaccess files. Finally, ini_set may be an option. -- David Robley Temporary Kiwi!

You can also add the following line to your code: $header = From: Your Name [EMAIL PROTECTED]\n; and write your mail statement like this: mail($email, $title, $comments, $header); You can just stick the variable $emailaddress into whichever variable is relevant - what was that for if not the from address? -Lisi There is an item in your php.ini sendmail_from string Which From: mail address should be used in mail sent from PHP under Windows.
