Hello Everyone,

does gmail handle it's headers differently than other email services / clients?

I have setup a script that sends a contact form information as a very
basic HTML email, however in gmail it doesnt accept the headers,
instead it prints them as part of the message.  Yahoo on the other
hand it works perfect with.




Here is the source of the email according to GMail

this is where the body seems to start, everything below here is in the
email body and not the headers.
