Subject: RE: [PHP] Mail From option in PHP.ini


>From the php website, it appears that the [EMAIL PROTECTED] can be
put in the fifth parameter of the mail() function:

Example 3. Sending mail with extra headers and setting an additional
command line parameter.

mail("[EMAIL PROTECTED]", "the subject", $message,
     "From: [EMAIL PROTECTED]", "[EMAIL PROTECTED]");


Note: This fifth parameter was added in PHP 4.0.5. Since PHP 4.2.3
this parameter is disabled in safe_mode and the mail() function will
expose a warning message and return FALSE if you're trying to use it.
