SMS via PHP
I just found out that you can send sms by just emailing it to the phone number.

I created this script and it works.
PHP Code:
<?php


$sendersname = "My Name";
$sendersemail = "my@email.com";
$recipient = "1234567@myprovider.com";
$message = "Test Message";
$subject = "Test subject";
$header = "From: ". $sendersname . " <" . $sendersemail . ">\r\n";

mail($recipient, $subject, $message, $header)
?>


Now I get the message on my phone but it has the text at top saying "myhost@host207.bluehost.com" and then it shows the message

when I tried emailing the same thing using my gmail account, it only showed my email address and the message.

How can I modify this script so it displays my email instead of the host email.

Thanks

Try adding a reply-to header, along with your From header.

I use this a lot, and I always just simply use:

PHP Code:
<?php 


$sendersname = "My Name";
$sendersemail = "my@email.com";
$recipient = "1234567@myprovider.com";
$message = "Test Message";
$subject = "Test subject";
$header = "From: ".$sendersemail."\r\n";

mail($recipient, $subject, $message, $header) 
?>



For instance. Good luck getting an SMS message to show you the Sender's Name.

It's probably an issue with the provider's mail server.
