Re: [PHP] using the mail() command

[Richard Lynch]

I would think you'd want all that MIME stuff in the headers...

But I don't really know.

If you want a quote in the HTML part, use qout;

In the plain-text, I would assume \ would embed a quote...

[PHP] using the mail() command

 First off, I would use heredoc syntax so you don't need to escape the
 quotes:
 
 $message = EOF
 blah blah blah
 $your $stuff
 $here
 
 '
 \ blah blah
 
 EOF;
 
 Also, since you're using text/html as your content-type, you should
 probably be using quot; instead of .
