Hiya Glynn. I think you've misunderstand what parameters mail takes.

It should be:

mail($to, $subject, $message, $headers);

In your example you're sending the headers as the message, and the
message as the headers. mail can also take a fifth parameter which is
passed to the program which does the actual sending. You're sending the
additional headers as this fifth parameter which could cause all sorts
of unwanted problems. :(
