mail() Cc?

[searain]

Hi, I have a problem with the mail() function.

$sender="[e-mail];
$cc_recipient="[e-mail]";
$recipient="[e-mail]";

$headers .= "MIME-Version: 1.0\r\n";
$headers .= "Content-type: text/html; charset=iso-8859-1\r\n";
$headers .= "From: ".$sender\r\n";
$headers .= "To: ".$recipient\r\n";
$headers .= "Cc: ".$cc_recipient\r\n";
$contenttype = "Content-Type: text/html\r\n";

$mailresult = mail($recipient, $subject, $message, $headers);

The Cc never works in my php mail() function.

I have tried several different ways to write the $mailresult= ...

every time everything else is working but not Cc.

What is wrong?

Thanks!

I don't think you need the extra "To: " header - that's already supplied. Dunno if that's causing the problem, but best to take it out anyway.

I removed the header "To: "

"Cc: " is still not working.

As a matter of fact, I never get "Cc: " works.

But from the e-mail I sent to "To: ", i can read the header information, Cc is there alright!

But just I never receive the Cc:

what is wrong? Help please!

here is a link from other forum. but my php is >4.3.

and my Cc, BCC still not working.

I have been working around by sending all the e-mails in loop but Cc, Bcc not working still bothers me.

anyone else has the same problems?

thanks!

Plus, I have tried both windows, linux platforms, old and new php, but still i never get bcc and cc works in mail().

There must be something I did wrong.

Anyone else have the same experience. Or just me. 🙁

find an article in this site:

http://www.phpbuilder.com/mail/php-windows/2002061/0181.php

then how can some one make the cc and bcc work?

thanks!

headers should be in right order for cc and bcc to work.

wrong order

$headers .= "MIME-Version: 1.0\r\n";
$headers .= "Content-type: text/html; charset=iso-8859-1\r\n";
$headers .= "From: ".$sender\r\n";
$headers .= "To: ".$recipient\r\n";
$headers .= "Cc: ".$cc_recipient\r\n";

right order

$headers .= "MIME-Version: 1.0\r\n";
$headers .= "Content-type: text/html; charset=iso-8859-1\r\n";
$headers .= "Cc: ".$cc_recipient\r\n";
$headers .= "From: ".$sender\r\n";
//$headers .= "To: ".$recipient\r\n";

Cc has to be before From.

I also comments out "To: " due to otherwise it will show twice in the mail property to field.
