mail problem (\r\n)

[ijme]

I'm trying to translate posted html form input into an email message. I will explain my problem with the following (test) code:

$body = '';
$body .= 'abc' . "\r\n";
$body .= '1234567890 1234567890 1234567890 1234567890 1234567890 1234567890 1234567890 1234567890' . "\r\n";
$body .= 'abc' . "\r\n";

$headers = "From: $from\r\n";
$headers .= "Reply-To: $from\r\n";
$success = mail($to, "Posted " . date("m/d/Y"), $body, $headers);

The result is (in Outlook):

abc
1234567890 1234567890 1234567890 1234567890 1234567890 1234567890 1234567890 1234567890 abc

The last abc is put directly after the numbers, not taking into account the \r\n. I tried a lot, read numerous forums but could not figure out the problem. Please help.

By the way, I'm using W2000, IIS 5.0, Internet Explorer 6.0, Outlook XP and PHP 4.3.4.

DUnno whats the problem.. Works fine here! What does it say when you read it in raw format?

I have a feeling that there needs to be a space between the \r and the \n

A space between them does not work; it just generates an additional blank line.
However, I think I've might have solved the problem: I changed the encoding in Outlook from Western European (ISO) to Western European (Windows) and it works now! How? I do not know...
