Mail()...From option

[Sleidia]

Hello,

Does anyone know how to make the "from" option of the
mail() function display a name instead of an email address?

Thanks a lot to the one who will respond.

&quot;FROM: Webmaster <webmaster@somedomain.com>&quot; in the headers (4th param) Anikin

Hello Anikin,

As you said I did this: mail($email , &quot;$sub&quot;, $content , &quot;from: toto <toto@toto.com>&quot;

But the email address is displayed again in outlook.

Any idea?

i just did this:
mail(&quot;hugo@mni.pt&quot;,&quot;teste&quot;,&quot;BLA BLA&quot;,&quot;FROM: Hugo Dias <hugo@mni.pt>&quot;
and worked just fine.
