Sounds like an MTA issue. You should find out which MTA it is and look at their support site.. Sendmail has a feature that will rewrite the domain on all outgoing addresses unless the user sending out is a 'trusted' user.. That could be the problem you are experiencing. You should certainly have an entry for the IP of your server sending email with PHP in the relay-domains and access files.. Everything else should be blocked unless necessary. Later, Bob Weaver "Kris Vose" <KVose@alidaconnection.com> wrote in message news:0D192E12994BF64B84EB7BE6D960E3900E39E4@alidamail.alidaconnection.com... I am having problems with my mail server. When I use the mail function in php it resets the domain of the from: address when the script is executed. For example: when the from: address is set to kvose@kvose.com it resets it to the mail servers domain kvose@mailserver.com. I believe this is due to smtp relaying being blocked. Is there anyway around this problem in php or is the only solution to unblock smtp relaying? Also...this may not be the problem at all. All input is appreciated. Thanks Kris Vose
