    Hi


    I have online forms on my site and when I receive one, the mail is "from" my sites email address. The real senders address is in the body of the message.


    Problem is when I hit reply, it will send the message back to myself and not the sender.


    Any answer will be appreciated..


    Thanks...

    Why don't you change the form, if you are using Wordpress then there are many plugins, one you can use and test first, if it is working good.

    Set the Reply To: header to the user's email address in the PHP code you use to send the email.

    Which email client are you using to reply? Stop being lazy, and copy the proper email from the body of the message to the Reply field in your email client. Easy as that! There is no way to have your form generator to email from the senders email if they are using your website to send the mail. Hope that helps.

    Evidently you didn't read my post. Not only is there a way, it's trivial.
