Well for one, your $headers are just going to be

"From: ".$from;

because you're not using a concatenation operator. Should be:

$headers .= "From: ".$from;

note the .=

EDIT

The OP corrected the code in the question, so I'll modify my answer. There are LOTS of reasons that gmail might be rejecting your emails, but a good first step would be to remove the \r line-break modifiers. \n should suffice, and lots of folks seem to have solved this exact issue (specific rejection by Gmail) by only using new-line breaks and excluding return breaks.
