email - Problems with more than four variables in mail() - PHP -

i trying build form submit copy form owner , user. when try insert fifth variable mail() seems if last of variables stops working:

if( empty($errors)) {     $to = $email_address; //user email     $email_subject = "some text";     $email_body = "more text";      $from = "from: $myemail \n"; //form owner email     $headers = "bcc:" . $myemail;      mail($to,$email_subject,$email_body,$from,$headers);      header("location: $where"); } 

leaving out $from copy of mail sent both user , form owner, no possibility control "from"-field of email - leaving out $header form owner don't receive copy. if possible both.

i apologize in advance simplicity of question - know php (and web dev in general) i've picked clever guys on fora such this.

regards

these correct parameters mail:

bool mail ( string $to , string $subject , string $message [, string $additional_headers [, string $additional_parameters ]] )

as can see, 4th parameter not "from", headers string.

try example below:

<?php $to      = 'nobody@example.com'; $subject = 'the subject'; $message = 'hello'; $headers = 'from: webmaster@example.com' . "\r\n" .     'reply-to: webmaster@example.com' . "\r\n" .     'x-mailer: php/' . phpversion();  mail($to, $subject, $message, $headers); 

you put from, cc, bcc etc fields in headers.
