Re: Mime Problem with mail funtion

Try: ------------------------------------------------------------------------ mail("mail@domain.com","new contact by $firstname $lastname" ,$text, "Mime-Version:1.0\nContent-Type: text/plain; charset=iso-8859-1\nContent-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit"); ------------------------------------------------------------------------ This might not work properly with all the SMTP servers. Some servers don't allow to use the 8-bit extensions for the server. You should try this instead to have a more standarized message: ------------------------------------------------------------------------ $text=imap_8bit($text); //Converts a 8-bit string into a quoted printable string. mail("mail@domain.com","new contact by $firstname $lastname" ,$text, "Mime-Version:1.0\nContent-Type: text/plain; charset=iso-8859-1\nContent-Transfer-Encoding: quoted-printable"); ------------------------------------------------------------------------ If none works, change all the '\n' into '\r\n'.
