Its there, all is good, but when i go to read it, i can see in the from section of the headers it reads , basiclly this email was sent by (my serverhost) on behalf of me, (displays my email) This is what is displayed when i open up the email to read it From: awss[at]server11.kthosting.com on behalf of [email protected] Sent: 08 April 2008 10:33:23 Reply-to: darren[at]yahoo.co.uk To: darrenpaulazzopardi[at]hotmail.com is this something to do with my host not allowing me to send emails from the website or is it the php script; $to = "darrenpaulazzopardi[at]@hotmail.com"; $subject = "Your Free sample order"; $content = "sample:\n Thank you for your interest in our productTEST. Your sample will be despatched shortly"; $header = "From: [email protected]\r\nReply-To: [email protected]\n"; //spacer mail($to, $subject, $content, $header); Link to comment https://forums.phpfreaks.com/topic/100115-from-doesnt-seem-to-appear-when-i-recieve-my-email/ Share on other sites More sharing options...
fri3ndly Posted April 8, 2008 Share Posted April 8, 2008 From: [email protected] Try an email address that could be real ie. [email protected] It should be easy to send from any e-mail address. I woiuld just use this (with pre-verification) <?php mail ('[email protected]', 'This is a subject', 'content here', 'From:[email protected]'); ?> Link to comment https://forums.phpfreaks.com/topic/100115-from-doesnt-seem-to-appear-when-i-recieve-my-email/#findComment-511873 Share on other sites More sharing options...
