OS Commerce and formmail scripts sending problem

January 12th, 2004

Webmasters using OS Commerce and formmail scripts on our servers might experience problems setting up the posting of customer forms due to the following restriction in our mailserver:
Either the 'From:' or the 'To:' field of the form must contain an e-mail address hosted on our server.
By default, these forms use the webmaster's e-mail address in the 'From:' field (which is usually hosted on a different server) and that's the reason messages are rejected.

In this case please correct the 'From:' or the 'To:' field. Check the PHP/Perl section of the FAQ for a custom example of a working formmail script.
