Hi

I have a very simple form that takes the values forom input fields and sends them to an email address - this functions fine - however, I want to send out an autoresponder when an email is recieved to the email address provided - unfortunetally this doesn't seem to happen. The auto responder works when emailed directly but not on the form email.

This is the script at the top of the page.

PHP Code:

<?php

if ($_POST) {

if (get_magic_quotes_gpc()) {

foreach ($_POST as $key => $value) {

$temp = stripslashes($value);

$_POST[$key] = $temp;

}

}

$to = 'register@mydomain.com';

$subject = 'Gallery signup';

// message goes here

$message = "Email Address: " . $_POST['email'] . "\n";

$message .= "Mobile Number: " . $_POST['mobile'] . "\n";

$message .= "Newsletter: " . $_POST['newsletter'] . "\n";



*



// headers go here

$headers = "From: " . $_POST['email'] . "\n";

$headers .= "Content-type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8";



*



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

}

?>

When the email comes through the body is laid out thus:

Email Address: my@otherdomain.com
Mobile Number: 1234567890
Newsletter: Yes!!

and the From: field in the email would be me@otherdomain.com

I think it's an issue with how it recieves the from email address but not sure.

Any help would be great. Thanks

just add an autoresponder in the code after the $sent code...

PHP Code:

$autorespond = mail($_POST['email'], "Auto Respond", "Message Here", "From: Admin<admin@site.com>");

You are a genius. why didn't I think of that - works like a charm.

Thanks

P.S. seems the original problem was with the autoresponder after all that anyway - permissions or something (I didn't set it up, client did)

Thanks again..
