    <p>I have a commercial system that will send emails to customers "from" the agent who added them.</p> <p>When new agent is added, agent@domain.com is automatically created. So I want my email to be from CompanyName - Agent mail. This is how I tried to handle this:</p> <pre><code>$headers = "From:".$companyname." ".$Agentmail."\r\n"; $headers = "Reply-To:".$Agentmail."\r\n"; $headers .= "MIME-Version: 1.0\r\n"; $headers .= "Content-Type: text/html; charset=ISO-8859-1\r\n"; </code></pre> <p>However, I get emails from "user"(user@servername) while <code>reply-to</code> is correct, as listed above. If I remove <code>reply-to</code>, it works perfect, e-mails in inbox will be shown as from CompanyName, and when opened, it will be CompanyName (Agentmail), however, such emails don't get sent to @hotmail addresses, which is a huge issue.</p> <p>Before you suggest that I completely switch my mail method to something along the lines of PHPMailer, please consider the way I use to send e-mails below, it may not be compliant with your suggestion. Thank you!</p> <p>Full e-mail code:</p> <pre><code>ob_start(); include("./email/mailtemplate.php"); $message = ob_get_clean(); $body = strtr($content, $replaceWord); $headers = "From:".$companyname." ".$Agentmail."\r\n"; $headers = "Reply-To:".$Agentmail."\r\n"; $headers .= "MIME-Version: 1.0\r\n"; $headers .= "Content-Type: text/html; charset=ISO-8859-1\r\n"; mail($email, $subject, $message, $headers); </code></pre> <p>I echo <code>$body</code> inside mailtemplate.php, as it requires some parsing etc. Mailtemplate.php is simply html email template. </p> <p>Thanks</p>

    3. COThanks @Petah, I'm glad to know I remade my emails because I was missing a dot! :D Anyways, it's better to use PHPMailer I guess.

A row detail

Detail views are divided into sections. All the information in the data section comes from columns in the selected row. The other sections display data from other, related rows.

Related data can be related in a to-one or a to-many fashion. Captions of data related in a to-many fashion link to a list view showing a filtered view of the table.

Try moving around until you find a non-empty to-many entry and click on the label to get to one. You can move back to the root by clicking on the database name in the header.
