"From field" in PHP email form

Posted on 16th Feb 2014 07:03 pm by admin

I used a wizard to create a PHP email form. I was able to customize it with the exception of the From field. I need the email that is sent to be "From" the email that the sender input. Instead it comes "From" a nonexistent email address with "server" in the domain. Here is the processor code I'm using

Code: <?php

$where_form_is="http://".$_SERVER['SERVER_NAME'].strrev(strstr(strrev($_SERVER['PHP_SELF']),"/"));


mail("braintrack@yahoo.com", $_POST['field_3'], "

First Name: " . $_POST['field_1'] . "
Last Name: " . $_POST['field_5'] . "
Email Address: " . $_POST['field_2'] . "
Situation: " . $_POST['field_3'] . "
Message: " . $_POST['field_4'] . "




");

include("confirm.html");

?>
Any help would be greatly apprciated.
