Hello, everyone, I'll try to tell what i want When you create website (domain will be: autogauge.lt), you login to ftp and create file e.g. mail.php in this file write: <? mail('[email protected]', 'Subject', 'Body'); ?> and then it runs you getting email, everything ok, but is problem you getting mail from [email protected], but i need that default mail will be like domain e.g. [email protected] or [email protected] And the same goes with another domains? if i use header doesn't helping that, because gmail will write: you go mail from Noreplay via server.domain.net, i need that it whos real domain where it was send. Thank you for your help. p.s. sorry for my english gramma
If you use mod_php that is what happens, user of apache send the mail (www-data). If you use fcgi, [email protected] is the sender... I am trying to manipulate this... but I don't know where to begin
I think this is probably now in the wrong forum, but.... <?php $to = "[email protected]"; $subject = "Backup Complete"; $stampit = date("h:m d/m/y"); $message = "database and spreadsheets were backed up today $stampit ."; $from = "[email protected]"; $headers = "From: $from"; mail($to,$subject,$message,$headers); ?> Add the head into your script as above.
So I made same research for this: In file I write this code: PHP: <? $mail_from = '[email protected]'; $date = date("Y-m-d H:i:s"); $version = '[SuPHP]'; $to = '[email protected]'; $subject = $version.' The Subject 1 + ' . $date; $message = 'hello 2011'; $headers = 'From: '.$mail_from . "\r\n" . 'Reply-To: '.$mail_from . "\r\n" . 'X-Mailer: PHP/' . phpversion(); mail($to, $subject, $message, $headers); ?> <?php mail($to, $version.'The Subject 2 + '.$date, 'the message', null, '-f'.$mail_from); ?> <? mail($to, $version.'The Subject 3 + '.$date, 'the message'); ?> And result for receive mail: [Fast-CGI] 1. [email protected] via server.domain.com for me 2. [email protected] for me 3. [email protected] for me [CGI] 1. [email protected] via server.domain.com for me 2. [email protected] for me 3. [email protected] for me [mod-PHP] 1. [email protected] for me 2. www-data [email protected] for me 3. www-data [email protected] for me [SuPHP] 1. [email protected] via server.domain.com for me 2. [email protected] for me 3. [email protected] for me So in conclusion the best way to use is mod-PHP, but How to change for default the name webmaster for me and change www-data name?
As Toucan said, you can set the sender address with additional headers. Just look at example #2 on http://de2.php.net/manual/en/function.mail.php
I know that, but user wants to have default names. like i said that they want to see using mail('to', 'subject', 'body'); not the www-data, but Like NotReplay and using without headers.
If you don't want to use additional headers, mails are sent as the user that runs the Apache vhost. So you have to make the desired sender the owner of the vhost.
