This question might have been answered before - but I cannot find the answer.

To get phpmail() to work I'm told to put this piece of code with the needed changes:

<?
mail(to-someone@somewhere.dk,"subject","body","From: Fornavn Efternavn <din-email@dit-domaene.dk>");
?>

But I just do not know where to put it.

I'm near to finish a new site using phpNuke.
When people add a link to the database they can be notified by e-mail when the link has been added. But the e-mail address received from the site is not the right one - it can - I am told be changed with that code.

Hope someone can guid me in the right direction - further information can be given a long with a copy of a file.

- greetings from sunhawk

The only thing I see wrong with your code is that you need quotes around the TO email address (first argument).

Did the quotes do the trick?

Maybe I misunderstood your question -- I thought it was about where to position the mail() function within your PHP code.

Sorry fo rnot replying - been away for very - just finished reading all the mails.

I fixed the problem working my way through the file - finding the "e-mail"-code.

There were qoutes and a pre-written e-mail-address.
