Really?

Here's what I'm using:

$mailing = mail($toaddress, $subject, $mailcontent, "From:  
$fromaddress\nReply-To: $fromaddress");

Works perfectly well for me.

From <http://www.php.net/manual/en/function.mail.php>:

If a fourth string argument is passed, this string is inserted at the  
end of the header. This is typically used to add extra headers.  
Multiple extra headers are separated with a carriage return and newline.

Note: You must use \r\n to separate headers, although some Unix mail  
transfer agents may work with just a single newline (\n).
