mail function question

[kamloops]

Hi There,

When I use this code:

mail($email,$register_subj,$mesaj,"From:donotreply@donotreply.com");

With teh From address set to admin@auloveconnection.com it won't work but if I leave it the way it is, it works fine.

Any thoughts?

Thanks

Is auloveconnection.com a real website? Maybe the reason it doesn't work is that it doesn't recognize that name or something.

Another thing you might try is putting that from address into a variable, like this:

$fromaddr = "From:admin@auloveconnection.com";
mail($email,$register_subj,$mesaj,$fromaddr);

Hope this helps!

Peace out,
Peace Co.

I doubt it will matter whether the mail() function is invoked with a string literal or a variable.

kamloops, what do you mean when you say, "It doesn't work"?

It won't send the email message with the auloveconnection.com address. And yes it is a real website. If I use that address in Outlook it works fine.

Thanks

It's probably your mail server barfing on some missing SMTP header.

Have you tried setting the "Reply-To:" and "Return Path:" headers?

Sorry I am a newbie!

On what OS are you running PHP?
