not sure what I am doing wrong.

I am trying to send an email and I can send the html part, and the image works INLINE as a background,

 

but I CANNOT get the text/plain background alternate version to work at all. it just shows up as an attachment or not at all

 

can anyone see what I am doing wrong???

--------------------

 

$headers = "From: me <$admin_email>\r\n";
$headers .= "Reply-To: $admin_email\r\n";
$headers .= "Return-Path: $admin_email\r\n";


$headers .= "MIME-Version: 1.0 "."\n";
$headers .= "Content-Type: multipart/related;
boundary=\"multipart_related_boundary\"

This is a multi-part message in MIME format.";

$inline = chunk_split(base64_encode(file_get_contents("image.jpg")));   



ob_start(); //Turn on output buffering 

?>
--multipart_related_boundary
Content-Type: text/html; charset=UTF-8

--multipart_related_boundary
Content-type: text/plain; charset=utf-8
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit

this is the plain version of the message that is not working



--multipart_related_boundary
Content-Type: image/jpeg;
name="email_back.jpg"
Content-Transfer-Encoding: base64
Content-ID: <image_identifier>
Content-Disposition: inline;
filename="email_back.jpg"

<? print $inline; ?>
--multipart_related_boundary--



<?php 
//copy current buffer contents into $message variable and delete current output buffer 
$message = ob_get_clean(); 

//send the email 
$mail_sent = @mail($toEmail, $Subject, $message, $headers);
//if the message is sent successfully print "Mail sent". Otherwise print "Mail failed" 
echo $mail_sent ? "Mail sent&" : "Mail failed&";
