Set reply-to address in wp_mail header

Question

I use wp_mail to send notifications out of my WordPress theme. How can i add a reply-to address to the follwing wp_mail script:

$recipient  = "recipient@example.com";
$headers = array('Content-Type: text/html; charset=UTF-8','From: MyWebsite <'mywebsite@example.com'>');
$message = 'Here is the sent message';
        
wp_mail( $recipient, 'Here comes the Subject', $message, $headers );     

   

Answer 1

You can set the reply-to address inside of the $headers array. It needs to have the email address inside of <> and I would suggest using a name to make sure everything works fine.

$headers[] = 'Reply-To: Firstname Lastname <your@mail.com>';

I added a subject for your email. So your code would look like:

$recipient  = "recipient@example.com";
$subject = "Your subject";
$message = "Here is the sent message";
$headers = array(
    'Content-Type: text/html; charset=UTF-8',
    'From: MyWebsite <mywebsite@example.com>',
    'Reply-To: Firstname Lastname <your@mail.com>'
);

wp_mail( $recipient, $subject, $message, $headers );
