You need to add a custom header as a fourth parameter to the
mailfunction, to add your From header. Example:mail('me@whatever.com', $message, $name, 'From: webmaster@example.com' . "\r\n");

Thanks that worked perfectly , by any chance do you know how i can fix this error ?
It is not safe to rely on the system's timezone settings. You are *required* to use the date.timezone setting
or the date_default_timezone_set() function. In case you used any of those methods and you are stillgetting this warning, you most likely misspelled the timezone identifier. We selected 'Europe/London' for '0.0/no DST'
instead in C:\Apache2.2\htdocs\websites\test\process.php on line 6Thanks again

You shouldn't rely on the default timezone of the server. It needs to be explicitly set to the required timezone. Eg:
date_default_timezone_set( 'Europe/London' ); // Or the timezone of your choice.
So put that line before line 6, process.php.
If at first you don't succeed, you're not Chuck Norris.
