Change the Return-Path in PHP mail function

Question

Is it possible to change the Return-Path value in emails are sending via mail() function of PHP ?

It's value is '[email protected]' in emails I send in my site and it causes some problems on email delivery failed process. I want to set it to my email address.

Here's the code I have tried:

$headers = 'MIME-Version: 1.0' . "\n"; $headers .= "Content-type: text/html; charset=utf-8" . "\n"; $headers .= "Return-Path: <[email protected]>"."\n"; $headers .= "Errors-To: <[email protected]>"."\n"; // Additional headers $headers .= "To: [email protected] <[email protected]>" . "\n"; $headers .= "From: [email protected] <[email protected]>"; // Mail it mail('[email protected]', 'test', 'salam', $headers, "f"); 

Answer 1

You can set reply to & return path into headers as below

$headers = 'From: [email protected]' . "\r\n" . 'Reply-To: [email protected]' . "\r\n" . 'Return-Path: [email protected]' 

OR as the fifth parameter to adjust the return path

mail($to, $subject, $message, $headers, "-f [email protected]"); 

where [email protected] should be replaced by your mail.
