Form to Mail

    My host specifies that:

    To stop misuse of your form by third parties the sendmail_from variable should be set to your Streamline.Net hosted email address. This is usually configured in the php.ini file which is restricted on our shared servers, however you can set this variable using the ini_set() command, shown below.
    ini_set("sendmail_from", " you@yourdomain.com ");

    A fifth parameter -f should be added to the sendmail function. This will set the name of the from email address.

    In its basic form, a simple sendmail script will look like this:
    ini_set("sendmail_from", " you@yourdomain.com ");
    mail($email_to, $email_subject, $email_message, $headers, '-fyou@yourdomain.com')

    Please can you tell me where I should add this this so that I can send email to myself and customer.

    MachForm uses PHPMailer library to send email and it already done that (using -f parameter).

    So no need to modify anything. Just make sure to put your email addres into your config.php file.

    Make sure to have this setting:

    define('NOTIFICATION_MAIL_FROM','you@yourdomain.com');

    I have added this to config.php file but I'm still not receiving any email either to admin or client.

    My host is very critical that "-fyou@yourdomain.com" is added to the 5th parameter in ALL occurances of: mail($email_to, $email_subject, $email_message, $headers, '-fyou@yourdomain.com')

    I would really like to get this working as its a great program, any help would be apreciated.

    Hi Aladdin,

    Was there any changes with your host?
    I reckon the last time you have the same problem, there was some conflict with another PHP scripts?

    If you still having problem, let me know your FTP login info.
    Please send to: customer.service [at] appnitro.com

    I'll help you fixing it.
