php mail() headers questions

Hello guys / gals,

I would like to know a couple of things...

I have a php mail form, quite simple and straight foward.

However, I have noticed on an email that I recieved that the importance of this email was normal, so no 'exclamation mark' appeared, however.. the font color of the email headers (to, from, date, subject) etc were in red.

How the hell?

I would really like to know how this is done, and if it can be done in php.. (non oop code please).

Thanks in advance.

Non of the current browsers that are free offer support for this, seeing that they've got there own priority system.

It's used as:

PHP Code:


		
			
                $headers .= "X-Priority: 1" . "\r\n";
                $headers .= "Priority: Urgent" . "\r\n";
                $headers .= "Importance: High". "\r\n";
                $headers .= "X-MSMail-Priority: High" . "\r\n";

Also can be pushed into an array using $headers = array(); $headers[] = ''; :) Print it out in foreach.

Thanks for that, but i'm already using this sort of thing. However, when the email comes through, it is red. Only an exclamation mark appears.

Hello

When we changed servers, I had to change my headers to end with just "\n" and not "\r\n"

Probably wont help for you but thought id at it just in case.

Ignore my original post above, I realised that the messaged was flagged. However, when the email came through, they made it automatically appear flagged when it came through.

Does anyone know what the headers tag is about automatically displaying an email as flagged (follow up)?

Flagged as ...? I think somewhere I got lost in the translation here. Do you mean CC & BCC addresses?
