garygas Posted September 24, 2006 Share Posted September 24, 2006 Hi Guys 'n Gals!I'm new to this whole PHP world (in fact I only started really looking at it yesterday), but I've already come to a hitch.I've been following a article in Sams Teach Yourself PHP book on how to create a form that is filled in by a visitor and is e-mailed directly to me.The problem I have is, I am hosted by Streamline.net and have PHP/MySQL active, but my 'sendmail_from' (which I think I have to edit) is locked and I have been told by Streamline.net that I cannot edit it due to security.Is there a way around this, or should I try looking for a new host?Please help!Gary Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
realjumper Posted September 24, 2006 Share Posted September 24, 2006 I don't understand what you mean 'my sendmail_from' is locked'. Perhaps you could explain or post your code? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
