Email to SMS Question

[aaron_karp]

I'm having the same problem described in this thread but no one has posted a response.

Basically, I'm using the following code to send an email as an SMS to a phone. But the phone displays my shared host's default email address which is some long obnoxious string. Any ideas how to make it display what I want?

	$to = "$number" . "@" . $carrier_info['EmailDomain'];
	$headers = "MIME-Version: 1.0\r\n";
	$headers .= "Content-type: text/html; charset=utf-8\r\n"; 
	$headers .= "From: My Site <[e-mail]>\r\n";
	$headers .= "Reply-to: My Site <[e-mail]>\r\n";
	mail($to, $subject, $message, $headers);

Thanks in advance guys,

-Aaron

Google SMS Cells and Text messages through the web. See if there's some form of a faq that address' this somewhere.

Here's a thought - hopefully you guys can verify or reject it.

Since all the emails I send to the phones seem to come from the default email address ([e-mail] or whatever, something awkward) is it possible to change the default server address via an .htaccess file, just for my site? If so, that might change the problem.

If so, do you guys know the code for that .htaccess file, or know of any good tutorials?

I think that this link might give you a hand.
http://httpd.apache.org/docs/1.3/howto/htaccess.html

But what you are talking about I think might be addressed a little bit better here:
http://httpd.apache.org/docs/1.3/vhosts/

Let me know if this helps. I'm hopeing that one of these documents will be able to address the problem that you are having if not maybe someone else here might understand the problem a little clearer then what I am.
