Unexpected ! showing in PHP email

[ericbaze]

We have a page which automatically generates and sends a notification email to a user when their account has been activated. This HTML email is generating seemingly random exclamation points ( ! ) in the body of the message. We have gone over the code several times, tried encoding it as a text email instead, rewritten the code (a) appending to the string AND (b) as one large print statement.

We are using PHP on Windows 2000 Server. Is there something about PHP variable sizes or the configuration of PHP on the server that could cause the problem?

The code is very straightforward, but I can post a simplified version of it if anyone thinks it will help. FYI -- this is the same code we've used on other servers without a problem.

Help!

It seems like I had a problem like that a few years ago.

I think my problem wasn't really with my script is was that the fact that there were now \n's in the html email and it was how the email client diplayed it. It this is a long email maybe insert some \n in to the thing to make the lines shorter.

If that isn't it, like homeboy said, post us some code.
