Yeah, notice where you'll be adding various mail headers in there. The
fourth argument in mail() is termed : additional_headers As you now
know, 'From' is such a header. As are 'Reply-to' 'cc' and 'bcc' ...
"From: [EMAIL PROTECTED]\ncc: [EMAIL PROTECTED]\nbcc: [EMAIL PROTECTED]"

I mostly agree with the web host, they can't be *expected* to answer php
syntax questions, that's why php-general exists :-)

Yeah, you'll find many more functions and "stuff" available within the
newer releases of PHP4, may as well make a request and discuss it with
them. And see their reasonings. Then tell them yours :-)
