    php, mail, cc not really working

    Hi,
    The following code run without errors. I get the mail ,and also it show the mail was cc'ed to who it should.
    but the mail never arrive at the cc'ed address..tired of this one now!

    Code:
    function send_site_message ($name, $country, $email, $subject, $message, $selfcc)  {
		$headers  = 'MIME-Version: 1.0' . "\r\n";
		$headers .= 'Content-type: text/html; charset=iso-8859-1' . "\r\n";
		if ($selfcc)	
			$headers .= "cc:".$name."<".$email.">";
		$message = "
			<html>
				<head> ... and rest of html...
			</html>
		";
		$success = mail(SMTP_USER, $subject, $message, $headers, "-f".$email);

    Try

    "cc:".$email;

    ; so don't mention the name.

    I do believe the correct format is "Cc: [email protected]" note the space and capitalisation of the first C. Also, the MTA as per RFC 1123 is not obliged to act upon cc and bcc headers so you should use a comma separated list of addresses in the $to argument of the function.
