Mail() help, weird errors!?

[petesmc]

Hi,

I need some help with my Mail script. I've found out that local addresses most fo time time do not print the headers in the correct place:

Subject: Here
From: Here
etc...
---------------------------------
Message here

Like a normal email, except with my script, for some strange reason, on some accounts I get:

Subject: test
From: webmaster@codingclick.com
Reply-To: webmaster@codingclick.com
Return-Path: <webmaster@codingclick.com>
Message-Id: <E14rfsI-0003xv-00@host3.hrwebservices.net>
Sender: Nobody <nobody@host3.hrwebservices.net>
Date: Mon, 23 Apr 2001 08:55:30 -0400

Message Here

All that is displayed in the message body and the other field are all blank. Except the to field. Does anyone have a solution? I've used other scripts and they work perfectly fine but this is really confusing me. I've tried comparing other script seeing what is happening but I can find a solution.

If you download my script: http://scripts.codingclick.com/MyMail then the file send.php is the one in question as it sends the message, its to long to post here.

EDIT: The header are:

$headers = "From: $fromemail\n" .
            "Reply-To: $fromemail\n" .
            "Return-Path: <$fromemail>\n";

and the mail is:

mail($address, $subject, $text, $headers);

End EDIT
THanks for your help,
Peter

try getting rid of the \n after $fromemail

[petesmc]

That just does this:

Subject: test
From: webmaster@codingclick.comReply-To: webmaster@codingclick.com
Message-Id: <E14rgG4-0004sR-00@host3.hrwebservices.net>
Sender: Nobody <nobody@host3.hrwebservices.net>

i meant the one after "Return-Path: <$fromemail>\n";


.. it is very strange that even the subject does not end up in the subject field. $address is properly formatted with no problems there i assume? what email readers is the happening on or is it all? what happens when you try and view the message source, for example in outlook express, do the lines match up or is subject line in oe empty?

arr.. had a thought.

try mail differently like:

mail("chris@thepadfields.com", "$user_subject", "$message", "$mailheaders");

[petesmc]

Nope, none of them work...

Pete

[petesmc]

mail("webmaster@codingclick.com", "$user_subject", "$message", "$mailheaders");

That worked without the quotes on the other things... sending to a certain emails..

Any ideas>

I got it working.

For some reason, my box that inserts emails was exploding on:

explode("\n", $emails);

Except it shuold have been:

explode("\r\n", $emails);

Thus I had to add:

$address = str_replace("\r", $address);

Befroe the mail was sent so it is very consuming. However how would you create a script that would:

Grab every single email from the database
Get rid of the \r then insert them back in.

This is so that i can remove the srt_replace in the while in the actual script as it slows it down considerably for a large list.

Thanks
Peter
