Yep, that’s what visitors get for an auto responder with this script:

> \<?

//This sends a confirmation to your visitor. Use this for auto responder:

mail($email,“Thank You for visiting us”,  
"Hi $name,

Thank you for your interest in our biz. I will reply shortly.  
Hugs,  
[Me","myemail@mydomain.com](mailto:Me%22,%22myemail@mydomain.com)");

?\>

The auto respond works, with everything in its place, except the return email addy. Instead, it just says from “Nobody”. Any help appreciated.  
Best, John
