| Hi All, i am using a php script to send emails but i cannot seem to use
my own from_address as Apache keeps putting its own address, how do i
change that? I have looked in the httpd.conf but the changes that i
made do not seem to make a difference. Any suggestions?
Thanks Wes

In your php script set the 'from' address. It has nothing to do with apache.

Then is some misconfiguration in the mail server. Ask in one of the many
php-related newsgroup or on a newsgroup related to the mail server you're
using.

Assuming you are using sendmail you may need to add the apache user to
the trusted users group.

See the docs for sendmail at sendmail.org
In some distros the trusted-users table is in /etc/mail may be in
other locations with other distros.
If you have webmin installed you can use that to add to the
trusted-users table

This is really a php question.
The 4th parameter to mail is headers. At the beginning of the headers add
"From: <desired from address>\r\n"
This will put any address you desire as the from_address in the email. You
can do the same thing to set reply to or whatever.
