postfix

I am using a php form to send email. The script reports success, but the mail never arrives.

The tail of the mail log shows:

Nov 22 01:24:25 contra postfix/pickup[1195]: 0CC1B119A53: uid=100 from=<nginx>
Nov 22 01:24:25 contra postfix/cleanup[1320]: 0CC1B119A53: message-id=<[email protected]>
Nov 22 01:24:25 contra postfix/qmgr[1196]: 0CC1B119A53: from=<[email protected]>, size=363, nrcpt=1 (queue active)

Just wondering where this from address is coming from and if thats why mails aren't arriving.
