Hi-  I am pretty new to php.  I have a script that takes form information, saves it to a txt file on a network and then attaches the files and emails them.  This works on most email apps like outlook, hotmail, etc.. however it does not work for gmail.

 

Here is the code and below that is how it comes to my gmail acct.  any thoughts would be great.. I am thinking it is some \n or \r\n problem.. but not sure..  Thanks in advance

Here is how it arrives to gmail...

 

This is a multi-part message in MIME format.

Content-Type:text/html; charset="iso-8859-1"
