PHP email issue
Question by user1802398
I’ve a HTML signup form with php. After a successfully submit it sends a confirmation email to the user email address.
Well, when user see his/her email it’s shown as:
Yoursite.comr@mediaplan.ovh.net
But I didn’t add the @mediaplan.ovh.net part to the email address. Why it’s showing in this address. @mediaplan.ovh.net? and how do i remove it?
php email code:
$to = "$email";
$subject = "Signup | Verification";
$message = "Congratulation $f_name $l_name you have been successfully registered.
Please click the link to active your account.rn";
$message .= "http://www.maaks.fr/hotel/verify.php?email=$email&hash=$hashrn";
$from = "Yoursite.com";
$headers = "MIME-Version: 1.0rn";
$headers .= "Content-rype: text/html; charset=iso-8859-1rn";
$headers .= "Content-Transfer-Encoding; 7bitrn";
$headers = "From:" . $from . "rn";
$mailsent = mail($to,$subject,$message,$headers);

First, You are missing a slash in your from header part.
$headers = "From:" . $from . "rn";
// ^ Here
Change From
headers while sending the mail
$from = "WebsiteName <Your@mail.com>";
$headers = "MIME-Version: 1.0rn";
$headers .= "Content-rype: text/html; charset=iso-8859-1rn";
$headers .= "Content-Transfer-Encoding; 7bitrn";
$headers = "From: " . $from . "rn";
