Are you speaking about the return-path or the "From" address that is showing username@host.hostname.com?

Please take a look at the following section and you will find examples in PHP and Perl.

Thanks.

I would belive this is server side not php, below is the client issue

"All e-mail I receive through my quote request page (submit button) has in the reply field username@host.dsmhost.com". I would like the senders e-mail address to be there."

Mail works like this on CPanel machine also, I know but no one seams to mind or complain.

What are they using for the Form? PHP/Perl/Front Page?

Are they using the form action with an e-mail address?

Example:
<form action="username@email.com">

Regarding sending mail from a web page via PHP or Perl, we recommend putting the code snippet you are using to send the mail. This will give a more complete example of what is being used which will help with suggestions.
