Use headers

Code: Select all

 
mail($to, $subject, $message, $headers);

Adding the -f flag will do the trick:

Code: Select all

$from = "your.address@somewhere.com";
$to = "yourmomma@hotmail.com";
$subject = "Hello";
$body = "Hi mum, how are you?";
$header = "From: $from\r\n";
$flag = "-f$fromAddress";
 
mail($to,$subject,$body,$header,$flag);
