It is using the apache user @ your host name as the default. Try this:
ini_set('sendmail_from', 'whatever@xxxxxxxxxxxx');
I will try this but I do not understand why it should work. I have a
'From:...' entry in my headers. Why is this not being used as the
primary from address and why is 'nobody@xxxxxxxxxxxx' being added
instead as the first from address ? In other words, I can understand
if I supply no 'From:...' header entry that a default
'nobody@xxxxxxxxxxxx' would be used but I do not understand why it is
used even when I supply a 'From:...' header entry.
"From: " is used by your mail client to show who it's from.
the ini_set (or you can set the 5th param to the mail() function) is a
return-path. If the message bounces (recipient's mailbox full, server
down, whatever the reason) it gets delivered to that address. They
serve different purposes.
Does ini_set actually change the php.ini file in any way ?
No, it only affects the script it's running in. Comment it out.
Check your mail server logs and/or apache/php logs to see if anything is
going there.
