How to format an email that Hotmail / Outlook is happy with?

Question

$body = \'This is a test\';
    $subject = \'Confirmation\';
$headers = \'From: Testing Site\' . \"\\r\\n\";
$headers .= \'Reply-To: admin@myserver.com\' . \"\\r\\n\         


        

Answer 1

The From header is invalid. It must have the following syntax:

From: "name" 

In your case:

From: "Testing Site" 

The same goes for your Reply-To header:

Reply-To: "Testing Site" 

Which you can omit if it's the same as the From header (like in your case).

PS: RFC 2822 doesn't state that the display-name in an address should be quoted. In other words: the following 3 headers should all work:

From: "Testing Site" 
From: 'Testing Site' 
From: Testing Site
