ID: 13044 Comment by: brieb at kreotek dot com Reported By: michalprv at poland dot com Status: No Feedback Bug Type: Mail related Operating System: linux PHP Version: 4.0.6 New Comment: I am using a standard Ubuntu 6.06 Dapper Drake installation (PHP 5.1.2, Postfix ,and Apache 2.0.55 (unbutu)) and am having similar problems. extra characters are are very consistent, and all emails with too-long lines are getting that "!/n" characters put in. Previous Comments: ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2005-04-22 08:46:21] wehaveagig at hotmail dot com I'm a web developer and I've been experiencing a very similar problem. Infact, it almost identical to the problem reported in Bug #31496 (I would have added my comment there, but I couldn't do so because it was listed as "Bogus"). But in my case, the problem is INTERMITTENT, where the garbage exclamation point character ! will appear in different places in a given message. (If it occurs at all). Sometimes the messages will be prefectly fine. Other times, I'll get an exclamation point somewhere in the body of the message. And other times, there will be several exclamation points in a given message. I strongly suspected the Zend Optimizer causing these bugs, as it tries to look ahead, it may be invoking the mail/sendmail program inproperly or before the message has finished being fully formed. Please respond with any opinions on that theory.
