From Line is actually my email address

When users fill out my form, it is sent to me from me. The reply-to is the correct user who filled out the form, but the from is my own email. The server admin said 'In the PHP mail form available from us, there is no way to change the actual From field (who the message is coming from). This is because the message is coming from the user (e-mail address) you use to authenticate on the SMTP mail server. '

Anyway around this?

if your server requires you

if your server requires you to authenticate than this is the only way.  phpformmail does set the reply-to field so you should still be able to reply and not have to change an email address.
