Email headers, by definition, end when a blank line is sent. So you're really cramming the BODY of your message into the headers through the PHP mail function. It happens by sheer good luck to "work" on some systems, since the resulting composition ends up *LOOKING* like a valid email, even though you routed your body through the headers. That doesn't make it valid. Everything after the \n\n should be moved to the body you pass to PHP's mail function. -- Like Music? http://l-i-e.com/artists.htm -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php
