You need to use some type of server side language like ASP, PHP, CGI or PERL… There is no other way… unfortunately.

not neccicarily h88… if you set the fourth argument in the mail() function as “$name <$from_address>” it should be just fine… :slight_smile:

I didn’t get it working when having the reciepant and ‘from’ as a hotmail account, however, you can get IT working the way you have suggested if you used another address…

well i did :P… well actually, when i was testing it, i used my own address as the sender and the reciever and it was filtered as spam… but if you use any other hotmail account it shouldnt… plus… it depends on your junkmail filter setting… :eye:
