Try using the extra PHP parameter: mail($mailto, $mailsubject, $mailmessage, $mailheaders, "-f".$mailfrom); or mail($mailto, $mailsubject, $mailmessage, $mailheaders, "-fuser@xxxxxxxxxx"); This user has to be added to the /etc/mail/trusted-users otherwise an X-Warning header will be added to the mail.

Hello, Our windows server has sendmail_from set to null in ini. We are hosting many domains, and having a single address there makes no sense. With null all mails that go out through our mailserver do not get a from address. The from address is only ommunicated with additional mail headers when using $sendto = "to@xxxxxxxx"; $from = "from@xxxxxxxx"; $headers = "From: $from\r\n"; mail($sendto, $subject, $message, $headers); The result is: 127.0.0.1 220 radio-nation.com ESMTP MailEnable Service, Version: 1.8-- ready at 07/11/05 127.0.0.1 HELO HELO EV1SERVE-V7V9CP 250 Requested mail action okay, 127.0.0.1 MAIL MAIL FROM:<> 250 Requested mail action okay, completed 43 14 127.0.0.1 RCPT RCPT TO:<to@xxxxxxxx> 250 Requested mail action okay, completed 43 27 127.0.0.1 DATA DATA 354 Start mail input; end with <CRLF>.<CRLF> 46 6 127.0.0.1 QUIT QUIT 221 Service closing transmission channel 42 6 As you can see no from address is given. The mail server then replaces this with a default mail address, and if a mail should buonce, it would get to the server admin, not the responsible domain owner. This is a problem!!! How do you configure the mail() or the server to use the correct from address when sending mail ?? why is mail() not using the MAIL FROM: correctly ?
