RE: [PHP] I have a problem with nobody!

Can't you just set the "From" and "Reply-to" headers?

<?php

$headers =
"From: buddy@xxxxxxxxxx\n"
."Reply-to: buddy@xxxxxxxxxx\n"
."\n";

mail( $to, $subject, $message, $headers );

?>

BTW, if you look at Stut's post, and you're response, you've placed the
"parameters" parameter in the "headers" parameter location, thus totally
borking the purpose of setting the "parameters" parameter >:)

Cheers,
Rob.

Let's take it one step further for arguments sake.

What is I wanted to change "nobody" as the sender to, let's just say Larry
or Curly, or Moe?
Making message header as;
Larry Shmuckatelli [info@xxxxxxxxxx]
Or
Curly Shmuckatelli [info@xxxxxxxxxx]
Or
Moe Shmuckatelli [info@xxxxxxxxxx]

What is the php driving force that controls the "who sent me" function?

Well, I am now 1 step closer

The php file do nor reference the importance of "having no spaces" between
the -f and email address.
-finfo@xxxxxxxxxx is key!

But, still can't get rid of nobody.

How do I make nobody disappear?

Here is my message header now.

Nobody [info@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx]

Using:

mail ($to, $subject, $message, $header,
'-finfo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx');

PS
mail ($to, $subject, $message, $header, '-f
info@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx');

doesn't work either.

Still have nobody to deal with.
As per being RFC compliant!

I have read about a -f function.
I tried
mail ($to, $subject, $message, -f$header);
mail -f($to, $subject, $message, $header);

both result in parse error.

Boy did you not read the documentation carefully!

mail($to, $subject, $message, $headers, '-fsender@xxxxxxxxxx');

Go back and read http://php.net/function.mail properly.
