How do I set the "From" address in a PHP contact form?
I have a problem with the PHP contact form I have created. When I enter information into the form and click submit the information is sent to an email address but there is no senders address attached to the email.
How do I create a seneders address so that when the user clicks sumbit it will send the email with thier email address as the sender.
The code for my form is shown below:
<html>
<head>
<meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=utf-8" />
<title>Email Form </title>
</head>
<body>
<form method="post" action="sendeail.php">
<?php
$ipi = getenv("REMOTE_ADDR");
$httprefi = getenv ("HTTP_REFERER");
$httpagenti = getenv ("HTTP_USER_AGENT");
?>
<input type="hidden" name="ip" value="<?php echo $ipi ?>" />
<input type="hidden" name="httpref" value="<?php echo $httprefi ?>" />
<input type="hidden" name="httpagent" value="<?php echo $httpagenti ?>" />

I am quite new to PHP and would appreciate all the help I can get with this.
Thanks in advance
You can add multiple extra headers in the mail() call as the fourth argument (currently you are only adding the $visitoremail. headers need to be delimited by a "\r\n". Here's an excerpt from the PHP.net/manual on how to do additional headers:
// Additional headers
$headers .= 'To: Mary <mary@example.com>, Kelly <kelly@example.com>' . "\r\n";
$headers .= 'From: Birthday Reminder <birthday@example.com>' . "\r\n";
$headers .= 'Cc: birthdayarchive@example.com' . "\r\n";
$headers .= 'Bcc: birthdaycheck@example.com' . "\r\n";
// Mail it
mail($to, $subject, $message, $headers);
mail("sd07sb@leeds.ac.uk",$subject,$message, 'From: ' . $visitormail);
You can add the "From:" header when you call mail()
in order to set the sender's address.
$headers = "From: ".$visitor."<".$visitormail.">\r\n";
mail("sd07sb@leeds.ac.uk", $subject, $message, $headers);
You could also append the "Reply-To:" header if you want (or any other number of headers you want to include),
$headers .= "Reply-To: ".$visitor."<".$visitormail.">\r\n";
The other option is to set a default from address in your php.ini file, or set it in the script like this,
ini_set(sendmail_from, "your_from@address_here.com");
The PHP Manual page for mail() has more information.
You should do something like this:
$sanitizedEmail = filter_var($visitormail, FILTER_SANITIZE_EMAIL);
mail('recipient@email.com', $subject, $message, 'From: ' . $sanitizedEmail);
The line beginning $sanitizedEmail
ensures that a user cannot send spam messages from your form.
Other answers explain how to add the From header. There is an important possible security vulnerability if you do not carefully check the script input. Your form can be turned into a spam machine that can cause you all sorts of grief.
Read up on email header injection: http://www.damonkohler.com/2008/12/email-injection.html
Verify that the email address is an email address and sanitize all input.
Have a look at PHPMailer
You can do almost everything using PHPMailer. Click here to visit the site and to obtain a copy
http://phpmailer.worxware.com/index.php?pg=phpmailer
PHPMailer does all the logic for you.
Eg. $mailer->addAddress('sd07sb@leeds.ac.uk');
