I am using php mail and setting all my $headers info to show From:, To:, etc. It work perfectly on my computer. I use MS Outlook. I am doing this for a client who received his email via his aol account. When he receives the email, the email comes in with "Unknown Sender". Is there issues with this? Do I need to so something different for AOL email to receive this information properly? Thanks. Mark Roberts, Roberts Computing Systems Webmaster Services $29.50/mo

Others know a lot more about email than me, and I don't know if this your system is Windows or *x, but quite likely the mail is sent with the identity of the web server. We had this problem using the mail() function at Experthost, as we could not track the bounces, they went back to sendmail's "nobody" account, and the ones we originated could not be identified. This isn't an answer, more a musing on what could be happening. Cheers - Miles
