 Need Help
<?
$name = $_POST["nameInput"];
$subject = $_POST["subjectInput"];
$message = $_POST["messageInput"];
$forminfo =
"Name: $name\n
Subject: $subject\n
Message: $message";
$recipient = "info@michaelnovikov.com";
$subject = "You got a Query from www.MichaelNovikov.com";
$formsend = mail("$recipient", "$subject", "$forminfo");
?>
Basically this is an email form although when i recieve the email, everything is just fine except the sender in my window of Thunderbird is Nobody. The text information inside is all correct but the senders name is set to Nobody. Any ideas?

The message does go through and i get all the following:
Name: test
Subject: test
Message: sdasdasdadas da sda dsa sda sdas dasd as das das das dasda sdas dasd asd as dasd
But the fact that if i look op where all my emails are listed, the Senders name there is viewed as Nobody

As I see it, there isn't actually a problem with your code. It gives you a blank "from" header, because you haven't actually set it. I've written my own version below, hope it works.
Code:
<?
$name = $_POST["nameInput"];
$email = $_POST["emailInput"];
$subject = $_POST["subjectInput"];
$message = $_POST["messageInput"];
$headers = 'From: '.$email. "\r\n"
$headers .= 'Reply-To: '.$email. "\r\n"
$headers .= 'X-Mailer: PHP/' . phpversion();
$forminfo =
"Name: $name\n
Email Address: $email\n
Subject: $subject\n
Message: $message";
$recipient = "info@michaelnovikov.com";
$subject = "You got a Query from www.MichaelNovikov.com";
$formsend = mail($recipient, $subject, $forminfo, $headers);
?>
As you might note, I've used an extra post variable- I took the senders email address. This looks neater in mail headers.

Ok - Try this...
Code:
$formsend = mail($recipient, $subject, $forminfo, "FROM: From Whoever");

PHP Code:
<?
$name = $_POST["nameInput"];
$email = $_POST["emailInput"];
$subject = $_POST["subjectInput"];
$message = $_POST["messageInput"];
$forminfo =
"Name: $name\n
Email Address: $email\n
Subject: $subject\n
Message: $message";
$from = "From: $email \r\n";
$recipient = "info@michaelnovikov.com";
$subject = "You got a Query from www.MichaelNovikov.com";
$formsend = mail($recipient, $subject, $forminfo, $from);
?>
Simplified a tad, but it should be fine.
