I had smilar problems before and found out that I missed some "\n"s. It
seems that you missed a "\n" at the end of headers. That might be a reason.
Another solution might be replacing "\n"s with "\r\n". I heard in newsgroups
and in some documentations that this might be problem in some systems.
I recommend to read the source of message after you get it. It is a nce way
to debug problems and gives out lots of information. (correct headres,
messages etc..)
Yours,
