mail headers

[Anon]

Hi.

I have a problem writing mail headers with php.

When i set the from: field, the resultant mail have the host name and the ip from it has been written.Can i make appear in the headers the address i would want for the from: field?. That is that in the resultant mail, all the information will be related to the from: field, not to the place or host where the mail has been sent.

And another question: Can i make people who'll answer my mail answer me instead of answer the address in the from: field?. I use the Reply-To: field in the header but it sets an address to send the answer and appears in the Reply: field in the resultant answer mail. Can i make appear an address in the Reply: field of the answer mail and make it be sent to another address instead?.

Thanx.

Can you supply some samples of the code which you have done that is not working?

Thanks

ok, here they are:

<?php

/ declaration of variables /
...
$headers = "from :$myaddress\nReply-to:$anotheradress";
etc...
/ end declaration /

mail ($from,$to.... (all this is right),$headers);

.....

?>

Sorry, i don't have this code here but this does not produce any error nor warning. All works correctly but i have 2 problems.

They are only with the headers. I write all the e-mail and it arrives perfectly but if you then see it's headers and the mail code when it arrives, you can see where it has been sent from. This is one of the things that i want to rewrite, i thought i could do it with the from: field in the header but it seems not run...

The other thing is that, although i can set an address to the receiver to reply my message, different from the from: field of the mail, i would like the mail to be sent to another address different from where it is typed in the to: field when he asks it.

e.g:

(fields on the mail that appears when he clicks on Reply to my mail)

from :[e-mail]
to:[e-mail]
subject:FW:my subject
....

i want this e-mail ( which is a reply to my mail) to be sent to an adress set for me, different from the to: field shoen above.

Please, could you tell me wheter is this posible?

Thanks a lot.
