Sending HTML emails

[jonnym]

I am trying to send an HTML email to Outlook but it shows up as text with all the headers at the top.

Here is the code I'm using:

$to =  "[e-mail]";
$subject = $subject;
$message = $html;
$headers = "From: ".$email."\r\n";
$headers .= "MIME-Version: 1.0\r\n";
$headers .= "Content-type: text/html; charset=iso-8859-1\r\n"; 

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

I composed an HTML email using Outlook and I don't see much difference in the headers.

i think html mails do also have the content as raw text somewhere as a mime section... maybe look at some php script that sends html mail (for example uebi miau, but im not sure if the spellin is correct) to get the basic concept.
