Trying to make a from header so when it sends to my email it says 'from $email' but it won't let me change it to that as the form just stops working. It currently works with the hostname email addresses but is there a way I can make it work with anything people write in the email address field?

    _"the form just stops working"_ You will need to explain what this means. – Alex Howansky Mar 22 '18 at 15:09
  • You should separate the two filter function in the 3rd line. – Lithilion Mar 22 '18 at 15:10
  • Use a library like [phpmailer](https://github.com/PHPMailer/PHPMailer) or [swiftmailer](https://github.com/swiftmailer/swiftmailer), it really simplifies things for you. –  Mar 22 '18 at 15:11

$to = 'mail@example.com';
$subject = 'Website Change ';
$headers = "From: " . strip_tags($_POST['req-email']) . "\r\n";
$headers .= "Reply-To: ". strip_tags($_POST['req-email']) . "\r\n";
$headers .= "CC: susan@example.com\r\n"; 
$headers .= "MIME-Version: 1.0\r\n";
$headers .= "Content-Type: text/htmlcharset=UTF-8\r\n";
$message = '<p><strong>This is strong text</strong> while this is not.</p>';
mail($to, $subject, $message, $headers);

Hope this will help you ..
