Wondering how to change the 'FROM' email on a php page?
It's in the "function validateEmail($email)" html section and is set to " $header = 'From: '.$mailfrom.$eol;"

Is there a way I can hard code the 'FROM' address?
I have an entry in the 'From' section, but the server is, for reasons known only to the website gods,
not accepting it. The code generated is as follows:
2024-12-09 10:46:36.655 [2331647] 1tKfxv-00000009mZD-1sLD <=

From part of the error it shows your email is gmail in general host do allow this and the email should be that of the domain. This is documented at the following:
Forms FAQ reading from
Emails are not arriving in my inbox...
5. Does your host allow you to send email to the destination email address?
If you have previously used gmail and it worked then you may need to contact your host and ask why it no longer does and how to resolve.
