Just so this is out there on the web, I battled the past 24 hours
about this. Background info... I developed a ecommerce website in PHP
4 on a shared linux hosting plan from GoDaddy and had the html
formatted emails sending as text/html and were going fine with limited
header information. Then we moved the site over to a Dedicated Linux
hosting plan. This time, it's PHP 5. Things are bound to not work as
expected moving to a new programming language.
So what worked in PHP 4:
$headers = 'MIME-Version: 1.0' . "\r\n";
$headers .= 'Content-type: text/html; charset=iso-8859-1' . "\r\n";
Now needs to be (at least what worked for me) in PHP 5
$headers = "MIME-Version: 1.0\n";
$headers .= "Content-type: text/html; charset=iso-8859-1\n";
$headers .= "X-Priority: 3\n";
$headers .= "X-MSMail-Priority: Normal\n";
$headers .= "X-Mailer: php\n";
For the life of me I could not figure out why text/html formatted
emails were always sending as plain text and all the information was
shown in the body text using the PHP 4 method.
There... I hope I have saved someone else the trouble of losing the
amount of hair I did over this.
