Rasmus,
        I was able to see the PHP code because I came home and fired up
Outlook.  Right after I posted that last message, I closed Outlook and
went to Earthlink webmail.  Same problem.  No code, and incredibly weird
hyerlinks and garbled code.  I opened Outlook back up, loaded the same
messages I just viewed in webmail, and presto, they look fine.  It's
definitely their app.  
        I could create an email address and password for you on
Earthlink just to let you see it firsthand.  However, I am sure you have
much better things to do with your time.

Regards,

Well, you read the message and I didn't get an email.  That tells me
that it isn't actually executing the code.  Are you sure it isn't just
putting the code in the mail literally?  ie. if you do a "view source"
on the message, do you not see the raw PHP tags?
