Thread: PHP mail() function

I am using the PHP mail() function to send emails, I have identified the following headers:

From: $from\r\nReply-To: $from\r\nReturn-Path: $from\r\n

$from is being identified as an email address.

now when I look at the headers in the email after I receive it, it says:

Return-path: <nobody@SERVERNAME>
Envelope-to: contact@SITE
Delivery-date: Tue, 03 Feb 2009 11:58:40 -0500
Received: from nobody by SERVERNAME with local (Exim 4.69)
(envelope-from <nobody@SERVERNAME>)
id 1LUObg-0007rX-PV
for contact@SITE; Tue, 03 Feb 2009 11:58:40 -0500
To: contact@SITE
Subject: SITE
From: $EMAIL
Reply-To: $EMAIL
Message-Id:< *************>
Date: Tue, 03 Feb 2009 11:58:40 -0500

Why is it showing as nobody@SERVERNAME in the headers once it has been received?

Are you testing this locally or is it being tested on a webserver?

It is on a webserver, but it has been solved.. thanks
