Using Mail, From
|
Can't Post
|
|
I'm trying to modify a CGI/perl script for one of our webservers.
The simple script.cgi takes a comment from a form, writes the information to a file and then sends a letter to the originator to conform that the info was received.
The end result is an email with the From: looking like an email address, which it's not.
(Any spaces in the From: are changed to periods)
There isn't any email on the system except for the sendmail that goes out and I would rather not set any up.
Is there anyway that I can still use the From field, but keep it from qualifying the name?
This is what I have in that subroutine:
foreach (@mail_user) {
open(MAIL, "| mail $_");
print MAIL "Subject: Comments/Suggestions\n";
print MAIL "From: Our Web Server\n";
$fields{'comment_line'} =~ s/%0D%0A/\n/g;
print MAIL $fields{'comment_line'}."\n\n";
print MAIL "Name: $fields{'name'}\n";
print MAIL "E-mail: $fields{'email'}\n";
print MAIL "Phone: $fields{'phone'}\n";
close (MAIL);
The end result of this email would have the From field like:
Our.Web.Server@ourdomain.com
TIA!!!
