mail problem with < >

[andrewood]

I am using PHP 4.3 on a Linux box using Apache 1.3.27.

Problem is that when I send mail using the < [e-mail]> the [e-mail] disappears so there is no email address to forward the mail to, however if I remove the
< and > the [e-mail] is there but the mail server does not send the mail.

$TO = " \"$row[name]\" <$row[email]>\r\n"; DOES NOT WORK
echo "$TO" gives "Name"

returns

$TO = " \"$row[name]\" $row[email]\r\n";
WORKS give "Name" [e-mail]

but I get this server error
"Name" [e-mail]: missing or malformed local part (expected word or "<")

[devinemke]

$to = $row['name'] . ' <' . $row['email'] . '>';
$subject = 'this is the subject';
$message = 'this is the message';

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