You pass $subject
to mail()
twice -- once in the second argument, and once in the fourth as part of $headerFields
.
Try passing null
as the second argument instead.
Question
Im using IPN to send mail to customers after a purchase. Everythings going well except one small annoying thing. When I test to buy a product with my mail as buyer the mail in my mail inbox looks like this: http://snag.gy/grrMy.jpg <- it has double subject after itself and the first one not changed into UTF-8 - why is this? And if I click on that mail suddenly only the UTF-8 coded subject will show (as intended) like this: http://snag.gy/k5VyF.jpg
Here is the PHP code that I use:
$to = filter_var($ipn_post_data[payer_email], FILTER_SANITIZE_EMAIL);
$date = date('Y-m-d');
$subject = "Tack för Ert köp! / Thank you for your order!";
$headerFields = array(
'Date: ' . date('r', $_SERVER['REQUEST_TIME']),
"Subject: =?UTF-8?Q?".imap_8bit($subject)."?=",
"From: {$to}",
"MIME-Version: 1.0",
"Content-Type: text/html;charset=utf-8"
);
mail($to, $subject, $message, implode("\r\n", $headerFields));
So the only "problem" really is that whn inbox the mails subject gets doubled with the first one with wrong encoding and it looks bad. Anyone that has input on this?
