  PHP is retaining the implicit linefeed in the text so there is a 
blank line between From and Content-Type, the end-of-header indicator. 
(You must have a dos-ish system.)
  Change it to:
$msg .= From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] . Content-Type: text/plain\r\n;

$fileName = 'errors.'.date('dmY').'.log';

  The log files will sort a lot more sensibly if you use 'Ymd'.

You'de be better off using the built in nl2br() function
(http://www.php.net/manual/en/function.nl2br.php) it'll have the same effect
as a it'll insert a br tag everwhere a newline character occurs.  Where 2
newline characters occur it will produce brbr which in your HTML will
break your text in the same way that a p tag would.

 Hi,

 I have a form for users of a system I am developing to add their
newsletters
 to a MySQL database through. I take their input and INSERT it straight
into
 the database after adding slashes.

 When I retrieve the information from the database I would like to replace
 double occurences of new-lines with a p tag. Can anyone tell me what
 regexp I should be searching for?

 cheers. James.

FYI: 

brbr is not same as p. P is paragraph and br is just a line break of 
the text. So, depending on your text format the lines broken twice might 
(normally ARE but not too noticeably) look different. 

try to mess with CSS and you'll see the difference about how browsers see 
those both ways. 

In the poster's case, to have a p out of brbr he should still use 
nl2br() and then add this to it: 


$text = preg_replace(/\w*br\w*br\w*/i, \n\np, $text);
