Topic: Email Address on Sent Email

Hello. I'm having a slight problem with setting up the email. When I send a document, it appears on the other side with my domain host and username as email address. The recipient sees this:

From: mydomainusername@hostXXX.hostmonster.com

instead of

From: info@mydomain.com

How do I change this? I have already put the correct email in the settings.

Also, I would like to edit the signature of the email so that it does not contain the company address, but a custom signature.

Regards-

Denis.

Re: Email Address on Sent Email

Hi. Thanks for your reply. However, the wiki page and the posts refer to problems sending mail. I don't have that problem, I just need the email sent showing that it's from info@mydomain.com.

The second link you referenced above seems to address this issue, but the posters are discussing code which I am not familiar with. I don't know how to code, I just need instructions to which file I am to go to and which line I am to edit and to what I should edit it to so that the emails read sent from info@mydomain.com.

Thanks-

Denis.

Use the code snippet in:
https://frontaccounting.com/punbb/viewtopic.php?pid=6179#p6179
to check if the "from" and "to" addresses are obeyed or if sendmail is overwriting it with some hard coded entry in the php.ini file.
