PHP mail() and Gmail - Avoiding Spam

[SilentQ-noob-]

Hi,

This is the code I am using to send mail, and it does avoid the spam filter in Gmail, but shows the header info.

<?
$from = $from_name." <".$from_email.">";
ini_set("sendmail_from",$from);
$headers = $from."\n". "Content-Type: text/html; format=flowed\n". "MIME-Version: 1.0\n". "Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit\n". "X-Mailer: PHP\n";
mail($to,$subject,$message,$headers);
?>

 

SO the message appears in inbox, it shows the from name and from email, except with this string showing

"Content-Type: text/html; format=flowed\n". "MIME-Version: 1.0\n". "Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit\n". "X-Mailer: PHP\n" as well as HTML elements

 

however when I have it like this:

 

<? 
$headers = "From: ".$from_name." <".$fromaddress.">"."\n". "Content-Type: text/html; format=flowed\n". "MIME-Version: 1.0\n". "Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit\n". "X-Mailer: PHP\n";
mail($to,$subject,$message,$headers);
?>

 

The message appears in spam folder, BUT the html elements dont show, which is what I want.

 

 

so my question is how do I get the message to appear in the inbox, and not showing the various html tags,

Thanks in advance! silentQ
