sendmail_from is required to be filled out. You need to specify in
your ini a valid sendmail_from, or use ini_set('sendmail_from',
'[EMAIL PROTECTED]') before your call your mail() function

No idea why it doesn't like your From header. Try setting
sendmail_from in the php.ini. You could also try a mailing library,
such as:
