Email (From Header)

Hi,

I am using phpbbplus 1.2 and my board has a problem, when sending email it uses email "anonymous@myhost.com" as a from and reply to address.

I want to change this, I tried to get help from official phpbb2 support board, however when i saw this line commented out in my emailer.php

Code:

// Build header$this->extra_headers = (($this->replyto != '') ? "Reply-to: <$this->replyto>\n" : '') . (($this->from != '') ? "From: <$this->from>\n" : "From: <" . $board_config['board_email'] . ">\n") . "Return-Path: <" . $board_config['board_email'] . ">\nMessage-ID: <" . md5(uniqid(time())) . "@" . $board_config['server_name'] . ">\nMIME-Version: 1.0\nContent-type: text/plain; charset=" . $this->encoding . "\nContent-transfer-encoding: 8bit\nDate: " . gmdate('D, d M Y H:i:s Z', time()) . "\nX-Priority: 3\nX-MSMail-Priority: Normal\nX-Mailer: PHP\nX-MimeOLE: Produced By phpBB2\n" . $this->extra_headers . (($cc != '') ? "Cc:$cc\n" : '') . (($bcc != '') ? "Bcc:$bcc\n" : '');

I knew this was a modification, probably to tackle the problem of phpbb 2.05 not sending emails.

So I guess this is the best place to ask for help.

Is there any way I can modify emailer.php to get it to use $board_config['board_email'] as a "from" and "reply-to" address

Any help appreciated

Thanks

check under the board admin profile, email there is probably set to the default and has never been changed.
