Several things seem to be wrong. The line breaks may not be correct. You
should not sent HTML only messages as many mail systems like Hotmail may
simply discard your message. For sending properly compose HTML messages,
you should compose MIME multipart/alternative messaages that include the
HTML part and an alternative text part.
If you don't know how to do that, you may want to try this MIME message
class. Take a look at the test_simple_html_mail_message.php example:
