From: Nobody

[apbc]

Ok.. I know its been asked before, but all the answers seem to have disappeared...

How do I get rid of the From: Nobody (hrblahblah) in a message generated by php?

The mail command I am using is:

mail($address,$subject,$texts,$headers);

Thanks for the help!

Just substitute something like j.edgarhoover@fbi.gov.

if you got www.php.net and lookup the syntax for the sendmail command you find out how to stub in a send from address.

Some mail servers will not accept mail with out a send from address.

mail($address,$subject,$texts,'From: whoever@what.com'.$headers);
