Try

PHP Code:

send_mail($row[email],$title,$content,$checkhtml,"-f <your email here>");

I have my email stored as a variable in the admin panel. how do I include the -f if I will use the variable? And isn't that the from field?

You can concatenate strings using the .-operator.

$str = "some string";
$str .= " and some more string";

// $str: some string and some more string

I overlooked something, what is send_mail()? Is that a function defined by you? The mail() function accepts 5 parameters to, subject, message, headers, and send_mail parameters. The 4th parameter (the headers) is where you define the "From", using the 5th parameter with the -f argument, you can define "mailed-from."

PHP Code:

$to      = 'John@codecall.net';
$subject = 'Hey';
$message = 'Hello John, Welcome to CodeCall!';
$headers = 'From: tcm@gmail.com' . "\r\n" .
    'Reply-To: tcm@gmail.com' . "\r\n";

mail($to, $subject, $message, $headers, '-f{$email}');

I tried that, still, the problem was not solved.
