I'm using PHP to send out multipart (text and HTML) emails. The problem I have is that wherever an equals signs exists in the HTML email, the following two characters are removed during the send. So:
<body bgColor="#ffffff"> becomes <body bgColor=ffffff">

Any ideas?

This thread (http://www.aota.net/forums/showthread.php?postid=47436#post47436) provided the answer.

Essentially my problem is to do with Quoted-Printable Content-Transfer-Encoding and it's use of equal sign to identify and maintain the output representations of special characters.
So I've just done a replace on the string :
ereg_replace("=", "=3D", $sTheString);
