When adding extra headers, be sure to enclose the line endings \r\n in double quotes ("), not single quotes ('). Something about the single quotes seems to force the r and n to be taken literally, instead of producing the newlines as they should. As a result, your additional headers get messed up. Replacing them with double quotes solves the problem. So: "From: Name <name@example.com> \r\n" .'X-Sent-By: PHP webserver' NOT 'From: Name <name@example.com> \r\n' .'X-Sent-By: PHP webserver' (this was on Mac OS 10.3.2 running PHP 4.3.4 and the built-in postfix sendmail replacement) ---- Manual Page -- http://www.php.net/manual/en/function.mail.php Edit -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=edit+39727 Delete -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=delete+39727&report=yes Reject -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=reject+39727&report=yes Search -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php
