I'll have to agree with Peter at this point. If mail() is being reported
as true, then it's at least making it to be accepted at the server. Soo,
something is likely up at the server end.
Just for grins, I tried your first code here (sans encode) and it
worked OK; I received the e-mail.
I see no Headers in your code but I do in the mail() statement; are they
there and correct? Else I'd remove the $headers. I just used a name and
a return path for my test here.
Have you looked at your server error logs? Both local and remote?
Depending on your server, it's probably not looking like spam or
you'd have heard from them by now or your account would be temporarily
disabled.
It might be worth asking the folks at your remote server what might be
up and include the same details as you included here. I'd go ahead and
open a support ticket and see what come out of it.
Could it have anything to do with the encoding? I think I'd try
removing it to see what happens at least; it's a quick test to do.
And of course, scrutinize the code very carefully for typos.
