I am actually sending the email via php using the mail() function. I
assumed it was the same effect that was causing the problem and wanted to
simplify the question so that I wouldn't get "go to a php group (I did that
too)". I was just looking for the right escape code to create a new line.
Yes, you are correct. I use a function that I drew from the web to handle
an attachment which has in it the mail() function -- and it IS a MIME
message with a plain text body.
As for your other comment, I am quite happy using Outlook Express as my mail
reader, but the question is in the sending from the website to anyone
else --- not what I use personally.
