barryman9000 Posted March 15, 2006 Share Posted March 15, 2006 If my mail() function gets it's 'From' address from whomever has logged in:mail($_SESSION['member_Email'][$i], $subject, $message, "From: " . $_POST['From']);What do I use for the "sendmail_from" setting in the PHP.ini? Any help is appreciated. Quote Link to comment https://forums.phpfreaks.com/topic/5070-phpini-and-smtp/ Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steveo31 Posted March 16, 2006 Share Posted March 16, 2006 If the from header is set correctly, you don't need to set the sendmail_from in the .ini. You'll notice that when the From: header isn't set, then PHP yells at you saying you need one or the other. In the case of sending mail out from a variable address, then you need to format the From: header the right way. It's been a hit or miss for me, but what seems to work isFrom:email@domain.comNotice there are no spaces. Sometimes a space will work, sometimes I need the < and > brackets, seems to depend on the server I am working on.
