I had to send an html email and I did the following: $bondaryAlternative = md5(uniqid("")); $bondaryRelated = md5(uniqid("")); $headerini = "X-Mailer: $mailer\nReturn-Path: $email \nFrom: $from"; $header = $headerini."\nMIME-Version: 1.0"; $header .= "\nContent-Type: multipart/alternative; boundary=\--------------$bondaryAlternative\""; $header .= "\nContent-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit"; $startbodytext = "\n\n\n--------------".$bondaryAlternative; $startbodytext .= "\nContent-Type: text/plain;"; $startbodytext .= "\nContent-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit\n\n"; $startbodyhtml = "\n\n\n--------------".$bondaryAlternative; $startbodyhtml .= "\nContent-Type: multipart/related;"; $startbodyhtml .= " boundary=\"------------".$bondaryRelated."\""; $startbodyhtml .= "\n\n\n--------------".$bondaryRelated; $startbodyhtml .= "\nContent-Type: text/html; charset=us-ascii "; $startbodyhtml .= "\nContent-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit\n\n"; $endbody = "\n\n--------------".$bondaryRelated."--"; $endbody .= "\n\n--------------".$bondaryAlternative."--"; $fp = fopen("./htmlemail.file", "r"); $message = fread($fp, filesize ("./htmlemail.file")); fclose($fp); $fd = fopen("./textemail.file", "r"); $textmessage = fread($fd, filesize ("./textemail.file")); fclose($fd); $body = $startbodytext; $body .= byte7encode($textmessage); $body .= $startbodyhtml; $body .= $message; $body .= $endbody; mail($to, $title, $body, $header); and byte7encode is: function byte7encode($string){ $string = ereg_replace("=", "=3D", $string) ; $ret_string=""; $len=strlen($string); for($x=0;$x<$len;$x++){ $char=substr($string, $x, 1); $ord = ord($char) ; if ($ord>127) { $ret_string .= strtoupper("=".dechex($ord)); } else { $ret_string .= $char ; } } return $ret_string; } Comron PS.
