Default Send Email function for oscommerce

Hi Everyone,

Got a quick question. I want to send out email messages to my registered members through "Send Email" function in admin section. However when I receive email from this (testing out), it shows From: ***@server1.abovehost.net (this is my hosting company's server name not my email address)

I think this is a funk with osCommerce not having a 'from' address in the mail headers in the php mail() function for that page. Anyone have any idea how to fix this?

The problem is my customers can't reply back to this email, they get: "Mail delivery failed: returning message to sender"

Is there any way to setup so the email comes from my existing email address? Thank you so much in advance =)

Best Regards,
Young

It should automatically do this if your osCommerce is set up correctly. You need to add the stores email address under 'My Store' in the oscommerce admin.

It works fine on my servers (over 200 different oscommerce stores) without any trouble...
