I had the problem that when sending "large" emails (at least 1000 characters), the mail function would add exclamation characters "!" into the body of the email. This was easily fixed by adding a wordwrap to the body of the email. The following function will do this for you: <?php function send_mail($myname, $myemail, $contactname, $contactemail, $subject, $message, $bcc) { $headers .= "MIME-Version: 1.0\n"; $headers .= "Content-type: text/html; charset=iso-8859-1\n"; $headers .= "From: \"".$myname."\" <".$myemail.">\n"; if ($bcc != "") $headers .= "Bcc: ".$bcc."\n"; $output = $message; $output = wordwrap($output, 72); return(mail("\"".$contactname."\" <".$contactemail.">", $subject, $output, $headers)); } ?> ---- Manual Page -- http://www.php.net/manual/en/function.mail.php Edit -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=edit+39730 Delete -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=delete+39730&report=yes Reject -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=reject+39730&report=yes Search -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php
