One of the comments on this page (http://www.php.net/function.mail) does it like this:

$to = 'nobody@example.com';$subject = 'the subject';$message = 'hello';$headers = 'From: webmaster@example.com' . "\r\n" . 'Reply-To: webmaster@example.com' . "\r\n" . 'X-Mailer: PHP/' . phpversion();mail($to, $subject, $message, $headers);

I'm pretty sure he meant to compare your mail() info to php.net's example.Param=Parameter; it is also called Argument - This is the information you put in the ().bool mail ( string to, string subject, string message [, string additional_headers [, string additional_parameters]] )You will need to know your data types - string, integer, float, boolean, etc.bool - Boolean: returns true or false (1 or 0)The information inside () is the parameter(s) and data types they need to be (Number of parameters could be known by the separator ","). You will need to include to have the function work (some of them maybe optional).

To clarify even further, you have this:$success = mail($to,$from,$title,$body,"From:$from\r\nReply-To:an_email@----.com");You are sending the mail function (in order) to, from, subject, body, and headers. The mail function actually takes to, subject, body, headers. The from address is not a function parameter, it goes in the headers. So your call to the mail function should look like this:$success = mail($to,$title,$body,"From:$from\r\nReply-To:an_email@----.com");
