Replying to a form that I received by email

[Martien van Wanrooij]

I am rather new at php so the answer to my question could be somewhere on
the web but unfortunately I couldn't find it until now. I am using a form
that is sent to me by email with the following script.

<?
mail ($to, $subject, $message);
$to = "info@mysite.co m";
$subject = "Reactie via uw website door ".$naam;
$message = $naam."\n".$ema il."\n".$reacti e;
mail ($to, $subject, $message);
?>

Of course the form field names in this case are naam, email and reactie.
It works fine but I receive the email message from a standard address from
my provider in, my case recycler@vevida .nl so when I press the reply button
in Outlook, the answer is not sent to the sender.
Is there an additional parameter I can add so that the "from" field in
Outlook is automatically set to the one who sent the email? Or is that a
parameter that can only be supplied by my provider?
Suggestions for an url that explains the topic of course are also welcome.

Thanks for any help

I noticed that Message-ID: <QVdkb.606$2o2. 15054@amstwist0 0> from Martien
van Wanrooij contained the following:

$to = "info@mysite.co m";
$subject = "Reactie via uw website door ".$naam;
$message = $naam."\n".$ema il."\n".$reacti e;
$xtra_headers= "From: $email\n";
mail ($to, $subject, $message,$xtra_ headers);

Thank you Geoff, that was exactly what I was looking for. :-)
