Installing PHPMailer v.5 (server running php5) with SMTP function. I have installed the main files in mail directory such as:

# class.phpmailer.php: This is the main class file which contains the various email functions.
# class.smtp.php: This additional class allows SMTP authentication.

I don't think I need class.pop3.php as I'm sending mails server side (smtp)and should be accepted by most IP's pop3 servers.

All my mail functions work great with SMTP and I can send and receive. My problem is that my recipients only receive mail from admin@domain instead of "My Website Name" Sounds simple enough, I know and I have made adjustments to class.phpmailer.php and have inserted my specific mail attributes for my site such as mail address, mail from, smtp server, user/pass for smtp,etc.

PHP Mailer v5.0 class.phpmailer.php is a very long script and I only found a couple of places to put the FROM address as follows:

PROPERTIES,

PUBLIC
/////////////////////////////////////////////////

/**

Email priority (1 = High, 3 = Normal, 5 = low).

public $Priority = 3;

public

$CharSet = 'iso-8859-1';

public $ContentType = 'text/plain';

/**

public $Encoding

= '8bit';

/**

message.

public $ErrorInfo =

'';

/**

public $From =

'EMAIL@DOMAIN.com';

/**

the message.

public $FromName

= 'MY WEBSITE NAME HERE';

/**

empty,

FROM' in smtp mode.

public

$Sender = ''; <THIS SPOT IS NOT WORKING FOR ME EITHER

If anybody has a copy of the script version5, let me know if I'm missing something here.

The third party software I was using had utilized phpmailer on it's backend so there was some tweaking of the script on the developers side and the standard install instructions did not fully apply. What was needed here was simply a "Website <email@domain>" variable to make my version work.
