email mystery

[azurian]

Hi everyone.

I posted a similar question before about HTML email, but now strange things are happening.

I want to send two emails from one feedback form. One email to myself, and the other to the person who filled out the form.

The mail to myself comes out fine - all the HTML works and the mail looks quite nice. The problem is that however I try to send the second email, it does not appear properly. Instead, all the HTML tags appear and there are several 'anti-abuse' lines at the top.

I have tried using Cc: in the headers and I have tried sending the second email as an individual entity later in the php script. Whatever I try, the second email appears incorrectly.

Any suggestions would be gratefully received. It's making my head spin so much that I'm afraid it may come off!

if you want to send the exact same mail to 2 differents email adress, just call twice your mail() function.

ex:
mail($to, ....);
mail($you, ...);

$to = the target of the mail.
$you= your mail.

by putting the target first, you'll also be able to check if it's not his client that refuse html mail.
you could also try sending twice to you.

i know that works, cause i often send 3 or 4 times the same mails in my apps.

Thanks . Just tried that but the same thing happens. Sent both emails to myself, but the second one behaved badly.

The first was formatted properly, but the second just showed all the HTML tags - it didn't even show who it was from although that was included in the headers.

Don't know what to try next.
