Email question

[intermediate]

Hey =)

I am making an email system... how would i go about making it so it will email the contents of the email the user types to the email they type in and at the same type make the from field be w/e the username of the user is

so it would be like...

To:
From:
Email:

and it would send all of that data say it was from that user when the recipient reads the mail.

please help if you know how 🙂 thnx

If the user has the following form fields

to_email
subject
message

And you method was POST on your form, then you would use

$to_email = $POST['to_email'];
$subject = $POST['subject'];
$message = $_POST['message'];

To get the from to be from whatever this guys email is, i'm guessing his email is stored in a database, so call it from the database and create a variable out of it. Then use mail() to mail it

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

$headers would include whoever the email was from.
