Sender email mismatched with server smtp email

[connman]

after doing some SMTP email sending testing, I received email from the sender. However, From: header part, the sender email seems to not match with the sender name. Rather it mismatches with the sender name and SMTP server email instead.

This is the code:-

Code: Select all

<?php



$name = $_POST['username'];

$email = $_POST['email'];

$text = $_POST['inquiry'];



//To, Subject, Message, Header

//mail('conn_man7@hotmail.com', 'Basic Inquiry', $text, 'From: ' . $name . ' <' . $email . '>');



//header('Location: thanks.php');

?>
 
<?php
require_once('class.phpmailer.php');
 
$mail             = new PHPMailer();
 
$body             = $text;
$body             = eregi_replace("[\]",'',$body);
 
$mail->IsSMTP(); // telling the class to use SMTP
$mail->SMTPAuth   = true;                        // enable SMTP authentication
$mail->SMTPSecure = "ssl";                       // sets the prefix to the servier
$mail->Host       = "smtp.gmail.com";            // sets GMAIL as the SMTP server
$mail->Port       = 465;                         // set the SMTP port for the GMAIL server
$mail->Username   = "mail@macromac.com.my";     // GMAIL username
$mail->Password   = "q1w2e3r4t5";      // GMAIL password
 
$mail->SetFrom($email, $name);
 
$mail->Subject    = "Product Enquiry";
 
$mail->AltBody    = "To view the message, please use an HTML compatible email viewer!"; // optional, comment out and test
 
$mail->MsgHTML($body);
 
$address = "bill@macromac.com.my";
$mail->AddAddress($address, "Bill");
 
if(!$mail->Send()) {
  echo "Mailer Error: " . $mail->ErrorInfo;
} else {
  echo "Message sent!";
}
?>

and this is the output after receiving email as attached...
is there anyway to fix the mismatch issue? Thanks.
