    It's said that

    If the From: header is not formatted correctly, empty or invalid our system will change the from address to be <username>@<host##>.hostmonster.com. To stop this, you must change the script you are using to correctly use a valid From header.

    Examples of headers that should work would be:
    From: user@domain.com
    From: <user@domain.com>
    From: "name" <user@domain.com>

    Examples of headers that will NOT work:
    From: "user@domain.com"
    From: user @ domain.com

    Then I checked headers before sending mails with mail() function, see below:

    From: WordPress <wordpress@guitarbean.com>
    Date: Thu, 27 Mar 2008 03:08:30 -0600
    Return-Path: wordpress@guitarbean.com
    Message-ID: <1d0bbc968e76042a7effb06ce21932ab@guitarbean.com>
    X-Priority: 3
    MIME-Version: 1.0
    Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit
    Content-Type: text/plain; charset="UTF-8"

    But the codes here goes well in hostmonster.
    I found the "From:" headers are almost the same but the quots(") of Sender name.
    But even if with out quots("), here work well still.
    You can take a test about the code here untill this problem is resolved:
