PHP auto email

[bobocheez]

How are those auto emails sent that do not go into the junk folder and are not marked as dangerous.
For instance when you signup for a site it sends you an email. Some sites it ends up in spam and marked dangerous, some go straight to your inbox without a problem.

How do you get them to be like normal emails?
The auto email does not have an "ID" of some sort, I looked that up with hotmail thats why it was spammed/marked as dangerous.

Use this ->


<?php

$Name = "Da Duder"; //senders name
$email = "email@adress.com"; //senders e-mail adress
$recipient = "PersonWhoGetsIt@emailadress.com"; //recipient
$mail_body = "The text for the mail..."; //mail body
$subject = "Subject for reviever"; //subject
$header = "From: ". $Name . " <" . $email . ">\r\n"; //optional headerfields

ini_set('sendmail_from', 'me@domain.com'); //Suggested by "Some Guy"

mail($recipient, $subject, $mail_body, $header); //mail command :)

echo "Mail Sent";

?>

I think the mail still gets marked as spam if the content of the auto email is spammy. Of course, it's very hard to hide the true identity of an e-mail, as it will always have the IP of the server it came from on it. The PHP mail() function is what you need.

Isn't the thing hunthost gave me? The PHP mail function?
