I have run out of sources for programming help and hope someone here can help me solve this problem. The folks I host with can’t/won’t help a bit.

I have a form at that I created in FP 2002 and it works just fine EXCEPT when the form results come in by email the "From:" looks like this: "From : Whitegyr@megs10.100mwh.com"

Is there any way I can change the “megs10.100mwh.com”? I would like it to be "From: whitegyr@whitegyr.com"
 
Usually that depends on the hosting company & how it is set up there.
To really change to the correct way - you can use ASP or PHP to process the form.

You can take a look here: - and try this - not too sure if your hosting company supports this or not

The "Reply To" was set up that way and works fine.
here is the actual header from my use of the form:

From : <whitegyr@megs10.100mwh.com>
Reply-To : webmaster@whitegyr.com
Sent : Monday, December 15, 2003 12:46 AM
To : jkstout@whitegyr.com
Subject : Request for Cost Estimate

What I'm trying to change is the &quot;megs10.100mwh.com&quot; I've corresponded with the host's techs and they don't have a clue.
