   Hi,

   I tried using the send-from plugin to change the send-from name. But from the contact-us form(which is customized), it still comes as message-noreply.

   The function called is in email.php where the code looks like:

   $headers  = "MIME-Version: 1.0\r\n";
   $headers .= "Content-type: text/html; charset=iso-8859-1\r\n";
   $headers .= "From: message-noreply@example.com\r\n";
   
   $headers .= "BCC:";
   $headers .= $emailBcc;
   $headers .= "\r\n";
   
   if(@mail($recipient, $subject, $mailBody, $headers))
   	{
   		return TRUE;
   	}
   	else
   	{
   		return FALSE;
   	}

   How can I change the From name?

   By the way I forgot to add that i had tried editing this file and changing the from header

   From: XYZ<message-noreply@example.com>\r\n

   It didnt work.
   I had thought that the from name header would be different bit apparently it isnt.
   As far as the problem is concerned, i dont know how big or small it is. If u wish, you can make fun of that one. :)

   thanks,
   Kanika.

   See if this works

   $headers .= "From: message-noreply@example.com X-Mailer: PHP/" . phpversion();

   also check with your host if CC and BCC is blocked to prevent spam.
