it can't be done and is illigal..
you're try-ing to sent an email with a 'radom' sender.
email is sent through the server. (where the website is hosted)

you can make a form where you post the email of the sender which will be included into the message.

ah, but it can be done!

you + the mail() function in PHP = desired results

hint: post this in the PHP forum, or use the search tool, theres lots of stuff on the mail fuction.

not illegal just frowned on.

phanbachloc: what you want is a spammig script and we won't give it out here. you need to use some form of serverside script to send that email as you want.

No, it IS illegal since someone could send e-mails from random addresses.

Telnet into a host where your site lies, almost all of them now have a welcoming screen with a disclaimer saying it is illegal.

[phpman]

why do you think formmail.cgi is a bad idea. it lets people do that exact thing. remember that it maybe illegal in the US but Asia it is not illegal. so yes it is frowned on.

It is illegal in the US, therefore it is not frowned apon but illegal for me. Do you live in Asia? I figure, since most people speak english here, live in the US

everybody, have you ever used it? I have never used it and I get scanned 20 times a day for people looking for it. you can send in the url a string that will use your formmail to send spam mail. that script was famous for that.

and just because this forum is english doesn't mean that it is not in Asia. if you want to get technical this forum lives in the UK. and yes I live in the US. Spam is not illegal here as long as you have unsubscibe links in it, granted they lead to no where but they are still legal. but they are trying to make illegal all around, no matter what is in it.

I thought you implied I was saying that.... I've never used formmail and never intend to

Wait, when did this become a spam discussion? In the US, using servers to send e-mails from other addresses is illegal (I am not sure what exactly the law they break is called though). This isn't about how spam should be illegal (though I hate spam, I rarely get any) even though spam does suck

What could be a good intention that would come out of a script like this?

[thegreatone]

This type of scripting can be done in advanced Javascripting but will take ages to reconfigure to your nedds Hence i won't post it...
