MAIL() function error

[junbagares]

Hi, the code below sends an email as expected when I run the program in the ZEND studio environment by clicking the run button. But when use a browser to run the program, it encounters the following error.

Does anybody can tell me what seems to be the problem/solution.

Thanks in advance.

well it told you of 2 possibilities

"sendmail_from" not set in php.ini

custom "From:" header missing

so you need to fix that.
either
a) set a value for sendmail_from in your php.ini file. youll need to restart your webserver afterwards.

b) specify a from address when you call mail().

to see an example of b, read the manual for the mail() function
