How to send html format email using php in google application engine

I am using a php application on google application engine to send emails but whenever I check the actual email received it does not have any formatting or styling even though i added some html in there . I get back the tags and all. I would like to add my own html styling to the email. The code I am using is:

require_once 'google/appengine/api/mail/Message.php';
use google\appengine\api\mail\Message;

$mail_options = [
    "sender" => '[email protected]',
    "to" => $toaddr,
    "subject" => $subj,
    "textBody" => $msg,
        ];
try 
{
$message = new Message($mail_options);
$message->send();
echo '<h1>success</h1>';
} 
catch (InvalidArgumentException $e) 
{
echo $e;
}

According to the documentation there is an option field htmlBody so you can add to it to your code 

$mail_options = [
    "sender" => '[email protected]',
    "to" => $toaddr,
    "subject" => $subj,
    "textBody" => $msg,
    "htmlBody" => $html_formatted_msg,
];

Note: I am using the Python runtime, which works in the same way, I haven't try this in php.

Your mail function should be like this:

mail($to, $subject, $message, $headers);

With the $headers variable like this:

$headers = 'MIME-Version: 1.0' . "\r\n" . 'Content-type: text/html; charset=UTF-8' . "\r\n";

(The $headers variable should be defined before the mail function)

Hope it works.
