[SOLVED] Sending email

[The Midnighter]

Good day.

 

My code works when sending an email, however it shows up in my inbox as sent from "Nobody" and the email is some bogus email from our mail server,

How can I set where the mail comes from, or at least let it think that's where it comes from?

Show us what code you're using at the moment, and an example of the bogus email

Here you go.

$to = $agent;

$from = "[email protected]";

$subject = "A file has been uploaded";

$headers = 'Return-Path: ' . $from . "\n";

$body = "Hello, " . $name .  " has uploaded a file, " . $target_path ."

Email: " . $email . "

Company: " . $company . "

Phone: " . $phone ."

Comments: " . $comment;

 

if (mail($to, $subject, $body, $headers))

{

  echo("<p>Email Message successfully sent!</p>");

}

else

{

  echo("<p>But message delivery failed...</p>");

}

 

That's the jist of my code right now.

 

Allworknoplay, that didn't help at all. Thanks though.

I found the answer.

The answer was to do this, to the mail function...

if (mail($to, $subject, $body,"", "-r [email protected]"))

 

It uses the "Additional_headers" column to enter the return mail.
