$onderwerp = "test";
$bericht = <<<EOT

<head>
<title>Email_test</title>
</head>
<body>
<a href="http://www.link.com/index.php?page=members&id={$last_insert_id}">* the link</a>
</body>

$headers = 'From: ' . $verstuurd_van;

In order to be able to send a HTML email you need to add a few more headers:
$headers .= "MIME-Version: 1.0\r\n";
$headers .= "Content-Type: text/html; charset=ISO-8859-1\r\n";
So the entire email becomes something like:
$to = 'example@example.com';
$subject = 'Test';
$message = "
<html>
<body>
<p>
Hallo <b>Example</b>,
</p>
</body>
</html>";
$headers = "From: example@example.nl\r\n";
$headers .= "MIME-Version: 1.0\r\n";
$headers .= "Content-Type: text/html; charset=ISO-8859-1\r\n";
mail($to, $subject, $message, $headers);

just mention the headers in your email script like .
// Always set content-type when sending HTML email
$headers = "MIME-Version: 1.0" . "\r\n";
$headers .= "Content-type:text/html;charset=UTF-8" . "\r\n";
so your script will
$onderwerp = "test";
$bericht = <<<EOT
<html>
<head>
<title>Email_test</title>
</head>
<body>
<a href="http://www.link.com/index.php?page=members&id={$last_insert_id}">* the link</a>
</body>
</html>
EOT;
$headers = 'From: ' . $verstuurd_van;
$headers .= "MIME-Version: 1.0" . "\r\n";
$headers .= "Content-type:text/html;charset=UTF-8" . "\r\n";
mail($naar_1, $onderwerp, $bericht, $headers);
you can take reference from html email with php or w3school email html
