    Hi there.

    I am sending SMS-messages to different canadian gateways and want the "sender" to be a number only.
    But my server automatically adds @vps0432.domain.com.
    Does anybody know how i can prevent this from happening?

    These are my last 2 lines of code:

    $sender = "403123132123";
$extra = "From: $sender\r\n" . "Reply-To: $sender \r\n" . "X-Mailer: PHP/" . phpversion();
    Code (markup):
    Thanx
    m.

    Try
    
$extra = 'From: '.$sender.' <'.$sender.'>'. "\r\n";
    Code (markup):
    however, I believe it depends on the server configuration also... You can also check the line with sendmail_path in your php.ini to see how it is configured...

    I suggest using a dedicated SMS gateway like Clickatell
