[!--sizeo:3--][span style=\"font-size:12pt;line-height:100%\"][!--/sizeo--]Hi All,

I've got a simple contact form which sends me an email after you have filled in the reqiured fields & clicked on submit. I need to know why I'm receiving all these weird anonymous random emails because of the sendmail.php file. Originally the email address was my domains emaill address but changed it to my webmail email address (gmail),which didnt help at all. the file works but I dont understand why I'm getting spammed. [!--sizec--][/span][!--/sizec--]

<?

$SendTo = "[email protected]";
$ThanksURL = "thankyou.htm"; //confirmation page
$SubjectLine = " Website Feedback";
$name = $_POST['name'] ;
$email = $_POST['email'] ;
$telephone = $_POST['telephone'] ;
$enquiry = $_POST['enquiry'] ;
$http_referrer = getenv( "HTTP_REFERER" );
$Divider = "~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~";

// Build Message Body from Web Form Input
$MsgBody = @gethostbyaddr($_SERVER["REMOTE_ADDR"]) . "\n$Divider\n";

$MsgBody =
"This message was sent from:\n" .
"$http_referrer\n" .
"--------------------------------------------------\n\n" .
"Name: $name\n" .
"Email: $email\n" .
"Telephone Number: $telephone\n" .
"------------------------- ENQUIRY -------------------------\n\n" .
$enquiry .
"\n\n------------------------------------------------------------\n" ;

mail($SendTo, $SubjectLine, $MsgBody, "From: \"$name\"[email protected]\r\nReply-To: \"$name\" <$email>\r\nX-Mailer: chfeedback.php 2.04" );
header("Location: $ThanksURL");

?>

These are some of the emails I'm receiving.

I don't see how they should get your email, but I do have to note your form is sensitive to email-injection. See this thread: [a href=\"http://www.phpfreaks.com/forums/index.php?showtopic=93206\" target=\"_blank\"]http://www.phpfreaks.com/forums/index.php?showtopic=93206[/a]
