What are common issues with formatting emails from a textarea in PHP for Outlook?

One common issue when formatting emails from a textarea in PHP for Outlook is that line breaks may not be displayed correctly. To solve this, you can use the PHP `nl2br()` function to convert newlines to HTML line breaks before sending the email. 

// Get the message content from a textarea
$message = $_POST['message'];

// Convert newlines to HTML line breaks
$message = nl2br($message);

// Send email using PHP's mail function
$to = 'recipient@example.com';
$subject = 'Email Subject';
$headers = 'From: sender@example.com' . "\r\n" .
    'Reply-To: sender@example.com' . "\r\n" .
    'MIME-Version: 1.0' . "\r\n" .
    'Content-Type: text/html; charset=ISO-8859-1' . "\r\n";

mail($to, $subject, $message, $headers);
