PHP - How Can I Hide Email Address?

i wanting users to be able to update there email address and check to see if the new email already exists. if the email is the same as current email ignore the check.
i have no errors showing up but if I enter a email already in the db it still accepts the new email instead of bringing the back the error message.
Code: [Select]
// email enterd from form //
$email=$_POST['email'];


$queryuser=mysql_query("SELECT * FROM members WHERE inv='$ivn' ") or die (mysql_error());
 while($info = mysql_fetch_array( $queryuser )) {
  $check=$info['email'];
 // gets current email //
}


if($check!=$email){
// if check not equal to $email check the new email address already exists//
$queryuser=mysql_query("SELECT * FROM members WHERE email='$email' ");
//$result=mysql_query($sql);
$checkuser=mysql_num_rows($queryuser);
if($checkuser != 0)
{
$error= "0";
header('LOCATION:../pages/myprofile.php?id='.$error.'');


}
}

cheers

I have a form with PHP validation and also a mysqli query checking for duplicates in the database for mailing address and email address in mysql.     It works fine but the customers are adding spaces in the mailing address for example  111 mailing address A V  E, 1 1 1 ma iling address A V  E etc.  and my sql query doesn't see that as an address that's a duplicate.    Their alslo adding email address like my@emailaddress.com and m.y@emailaddress.com, m.y.2@emailaddress.com etc to bypass that comparision also.    Is there anyway to stop this from happening?        

Hello,
I am working with a SMTP class to send an email. It's all working perfectly fine, but when the email is received (sent from the online form), and I open my email and click reply, there are two email addresses. The correct one (which I entered when I sent the email), and my ftp username for the site??

I've got three files that could effect this, but I was unable to locate any problems:
mailer.php ( smtp send mail class)
mail.php ( submission data: title, subject, etc. )
contact_form.php ( form for submission )

I am only including the file which I think is applicable (mail.php), but let me know if you would also like to see the mailer.php class.

Current output:

reply-to   ftpusername@domainname.com,
correct_from_email@fromemail.com

Hi, n0obie here.  I'm trying to identify where my customers are coming from via emails I've sent/received. However, many email providers (namely Gmail) have circumvented this by disallowing IP address geolocation/image caching.

Hi, I've put together a callback request form that emails my client when someone fills it out.

the form is as follows

Code: [Select]
<form method="post" action="php/callbackform.php">
  Name: <input name="name" type="text" /><br />
  Phone number: <input name="phone" type="text" /><br />
  no: <input type="checkbox" name="no" value="This customer does not want their information to be used for marketing purposes" /><br />
  <input type="submit" />
</form>

it posts to this code

Code: [Select]
<?php
  $name = $_REQUEST['name'] ;
  $phone = $_REQUEST['phone'] ;
  $optout = $_REQUEST['no'] ;
  $message = $phone . "  " . $optout;

  mail( "client@example.com", "Call back form request",
    $message, "From: $name" );
  header( "Location: http://www.example.com/index.php" );
?>

The problem is that when the email is received, the email 'from' field shows my servers default email address.

So if someone called bob filled out the form the resulting email would show as;

From: bob<default@myserver.com>

My client doesn't want to add an email box to use as the from address so is there anyway i can hide my address being included in the email header?

thanks
Richard
