Try: $header = "From: Test List <irc@mediasoft.ro>"; mail($to, $subject, $fullbody, $header.""); Note the extra Null String concatinated... My php.ini is also configured to show: sendmail_from= In the mail function... This is under WinNT... php 4.2.1 The Null String might work under UNIX too... I haven't tried it... Spike...
