Sorry, I forgot about this issue.
It's most likely that MyBB is sending it in plain text, instead of in a HTML version. Unless there is an option to switch between them two (Not 100% sure), then you'd need to make core edits.

No problem, just wasnt sure if the question was on the forum radar or not.
Really appreciate your feedback.
Am really new at this php stuff.
Good point about the html !
Checked the ACP and looks like there is a configuration/mail settings for outgoing mail options including php or stmp.
The php option has a 'Additional Parameters for PHP's mail()' option.
Also has a php manual link to consult, where there is an html option for mail(), but not sure if mail() means adding something in the parans, like (content), or if need to edit code at some php file.
Thats about as far as can go at this time.
Will revisit tomorrow, but not very good a interpreting some of the code talk instructions.
If you have a chance would really be interested in your interpretation of the ACP mail setting options.
Thanks again for the followup.
I've never changed the MyBB mail settings before, so I'm not 100% on how it parses the field, but you could try entering this:
Content-type: text/html
into
Additional Parameters for PHP's mail()
The additional parameters is used to pass parameters to whatever program php hands the mail off to on the server, in most cases it is sendmail. The above suggestion for content-type will not work as it is not a recognized option for sendmail.
MyBB sends mails out in text by default for all the system messages. The only place that I can remember off head where you can send html email is if you are sending mass mail.
If you would like to send the system messages as html then you'll have to make some core edits. While I haven't tried this edit myself, I believe it should work and should not affect any other functionality.
The edit to make is in functions.php
Find:
function my_mail($to, $subject, $message, $from="", $charset="", $headers="", $keep_alive=false, $format="text", $message_text="", $return_email="")
Replace with:
function my_mail($to, $subject, $message, $from="", $charset="", $headers="", $keep_alive=false, $format="both", $message_text="", $return_email="")
Thanks to all for the info.
The text vs html for Mybb email info was very helpful.
Probably will just leave things as they are, text, for email.
Use Pine (text only email client) a lot myself.
Thanks again for the help.
