To add to tschmieder's note about the use of the PHP_EOL constant being multiplatform: I tested the mail function on the following code: <?php echo "Upon opening this page, a message should be sent."; $message = "This is now a test of a message that will certainly be longer than 70 characters." . PHP_EOL; $message = wordwrap($message, 70, PHP_EOL); mail("person@example.com", "This is a test", $message, "From: webmaster@example.com" . PHP_EOL); ?> Be sure that if you are going to send a message longer than 70 characters (and if you are going to use wordwrap() to fix this) that you specify the break to be used as PHP_EOL. I had the most difficult time with this on a Windows host and want to spare others some trouble. ---- Server IP: 64.71.164.2 Probable Submitter: 184.38.96.71 ---- Manual Page -- http://www.php.net/manual/en/function.mail.php Edit -- https://master.php.net/note/edit/107075 Del: integrated -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/107075/integrated Del: useless -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/107075/useless Del: bad code -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/107075/bad+code Del: spam -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/107075/spam Del: non-english -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/107075/non-english Del: in docs -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/107075/in+docs Del: other reasons-- https://master.php.net/note/delete/107075 Reject -- https://master.php.net/note/reject/107075 Search -- https://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php
