Hi Guys I'm using the mail function for sending mail, and I would like to specify the Return-Path header, but it would seem that PHP or Apache is modyfying the header. This is the simple code: mail('to@somewhere.com', 'Subject', 'Message', "From: from@somewhere.com\nReturn-Path: bounce@somewhere.com\n"); .. but when the message bounces - it bounces to apache@web.server instead of the bounce adress? Any hints on how to solve this problem?
If you're on *nix you can use the fifth parameter of the mail() function, and specify "-fbounce@somewhere.com". -- Richard Heyes http://www.phpguru.org
