Thanks to everyone who replied. I have taken the short route and changed the source data.
I should have thought of that first I suppose.
Now I have a few existing records to edit but from now on I'll be automagic.

I'd try something like: 1 <?php 2 $String = 'From: Wouter van Vliet <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>'; 3 preg_match('/^\s*([^:]*)\s*:\s*(.*)$/', $String, $Matches); 4 5 print_r($Matches); 6 7 ?>
==> OUTPUT: Array ( [0] => From: Wouter van Vliet <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> [1] => From [2] => Wouter van Vliet <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> )
From here you'd be able to manipulate the things you want in any format
you'd want it to have. Or use preg_match_all() if you have all mail headers
in one variable.
