Hi Murray,
Try doing something like this:
-------------------------------------------------------------------
$body = "From: $name
Email: $email
IP Address: $_SERVER['REMOTE_ADDR']
Feedback:
$feedback
";
$fromaddr = "$email
Reply-To: $email
X-Mailer: PHP/" . phpversion();
mail("planetthoughtful@xxxxxxxxx", "Feedback", $body, $fromaddr);
-------------------------------------------------------------------
I haven't tested this 'actual' piece of code, but I've used similar in other
emailing scripts.
Regards,
Richie !
