Mail() From header not working

[Anon]

I have the following line of code...

mail("[e-mail]","Access World - Repair: $country",$body,"From: <".$Email.">\r\nContent-Type: text/html");

...that is supposed to send me an email. This works fine except the "From" is blank. Before I added the From code, it said "nobody."

What do I have to do to get it to show the From address?

Thanks,

Jon

Jon,

You need to specify the name of the sender. Let $name hold that, and change your code to:

mail("[e-mail]","Access World - Repair:" . $country,$body,"From: " . $name . " <".$Email.">\r\nContent-Type: text/html");

That should work, but I've never changed the Content-Type in an email, so I don't know if that part is correct. If the above doesn't work, try:

mail("[e-mail]","Access World - Repair:" . $country,$body,"From: " . $name . " <".$Email.">");
