I can't seem to find where the identity is in either PHP.ini or my mail server (Postfix)

When a mail() is called and no headers are given (&quot;From: user<user@domain.com>&quot;) the Apache user is given as a default. Where can I change that?

When no headers are given the user that Apache is running as will be the From field. The way to change that is, really, to give a From header.
