I'm trying to create a php script that will handle a mailing list for me using a mySQL database, and I have most of it in place. Unfortunately, I can't seem to get the headers to work right, and I'm not sure what the problem is.
$headers='From: [email protected] \r\n'; $headers.='Reply-To: [email protected]\r\n'; $headers.='X-Mailer: PHP/' . phpversion().'\r\n'; $headers.= 'MIME-Version: 1.0' . "\r\n"; $headers.= 'Content-type: text/html; charset=iso-8859-1 \r\n'; $headers.= "BCC: $emailList"; The result I'm getting on the recieving end is:
"noreply"@rilburskryler.net rnReply-To: [email protected]: PHP/5.2.13rnMIME-Version: 1.0

An email header is the area in which you enter important information above the email content area. The information in the header includes such things as the recipient, the sender, and a subject line with the option of sending copies to additional recipients.
An email header tells who sent the email and where it arrived. Some markers indicate this information, like “From:” — sender's name and email address, “To:” — the recipient's name and email address, and “Date:” — the time and date of when the email was sent.
To have names, as opposed to email addresses shown, use the following:
"John Smith" <[email protected]> Easy.
Regarding the broken line breaks, that is because you are enclosing the text in apostrophes rather than quotation marks:
$headers = array( 'From: "The Sending Name" <[email protected]>' , 'Reply-To: "The Reply To Name" <[email protected]>' , 'X-Mailer: PHP/' . phpversion() , 'MIME-Version: 1.0' , 'Content-type: text/html; charset=iso-8859-1' , 'BCC: ' . $emailList ); $headers = implode( "\r\n" , $headers ); If you love us?
