Hi Monks!

My program sends out emails from a form response and the problem I am having is when some one gets an email the
<anonymous@host.myisp.com>
shows up, I don't want this anonymous to show, I wnat to get rid of it. I've tried -F, but no results, here is my code, if someone have any better ideas it would be very nice!


$mailto[0]="person1\@gmail.com";
$mailto[1]="person2\@hotmail.com";
$mailto[2]="person3\@yahoo.com";

foreach my $element (@mailto) {
    
     open MAIL, "| /usr/sbin/sendmail -t -F'$name'"
       or die "That sucks, I can't open a port on the mail server. I'm
+ going to take all my toys and go home now: $!";         
     print MAIL "To: $element\n";         
     print MAIL "Subject: New Form From $name\n";
     print MAIL "You have received a new Form.\n";
     print MAIL "Please click on the link to finalize process.\n";
     print MAIL "New Form Entry is at:\n\n";         
    close MAIL or die "Error closing sendmail: $!";
    }
