Your code has a slight problem that I see, the 'From:' header contain a
newline between the name & the email, that may cause problems for your
code.

* PHP version is actually 4.1.2 but Server is hosted with NTT/Verio so
unable to update PHP version
I am testing my mail function where a user enters their subject and
message on a form and the next page pulls emails from a database and
mails out to everyone. When I put the word From in the message box in
the format From.. or From then on.. or From Sat 16th. it displays a '>'
before the word From like this >From then on..
It doesn't do this with lower case from or upper case. It is ok when
you insert a space before writing From.
I thought it might be getting mixed up with the From tag. My code is
this:
<?php
echo "Emails have been sent to the following people: <br><br>";
$header = "From: Blair Drummond Safari Park
<[EMAIL PROTECTED]>\n";
$header .= "Content-Type: text/html\n";
$db = mysql_connect("localhost", "******", "******");
mysql_select_db("******",$db);
$result = mysql_db_query("******","select * from consumers where
email<>'' and email <> ' ' and mailing<>-1");
while ($row = mysql_fetch_array($result)) {
echo $row["email"]." (".$row["first_name"]."
".$row["surname"].")
";
mail($row["email"],$subject,$message,$header);
}
?>
