I have this in a script

// this is who we are sending the email to
$recipient .= "gmweb at eurosoft-uk.com";

// Setting the Subject of the email
$subject = "Web Form from $SERVER_NAME";

// Setup the CORRECT goldmine header. THIS IS NEEDED.
$header .= "Content-Type: application/x-gm-impdata\n";

// This is who the email comes from.
$header .= "From: webmaster@$SERVER_NAME\n";

<snip>
// send the email
mail($recipient, $subject, $message, $header);


that works for me .

Hi,

I'm using a php mail() function in a script.  It sends some variables
to the
sendmail where they're mailed out.

This works fine, the only problem is that on receipt of the email, it
says
'unprivileged user' as the 'from' section.

The server is freebsd running apache.

any ideas?

many thanks!
