The mail() function has two optional inputs. Additional Headers and
Additional Parameters. FROM and other optional headers can be set up like
this..
$headers = "From: [EMAIL PROTECTED]";
$headers .= "Cc: [EMAIL PROTECTED]";
$headers .= "Reply-To: [EMAIL PROTECTED]";
And then included as the fourth input to the function..
mail("[EMAIL PROTECTED]", "test", "testbody", $headers);
Be aware that forging headers can get you into trouble with the spam
blockers regardless of the legitimacy of your intentions. Go to Google
Groups and read up on what you need to know in order to keep your legitimate
mail servers from being black listed.
