I modified the email so I will now receive an email with the full
phpinfo.  I won't have an answer until it happens again though.  In any
case I am pulling the host header from $_SERVER["SERVER_NAME"];

Definitely strange.  Are you having it send you a copy of the header
information so you can verify that you're capturing the correct info and
you're not getting like a REFERRER type tag from someone clicking on a
link IN yahoo?
