#8734 [Dup->Csd]: Unable to send large emails, causes a GPF - small email work fine.

ID: 8734 Updated by: sniper@php.net Reported By: wayne.cope@sitel.co.uk -Status: Duplicate +Status: Closed Bug Type: Mail related Operating System: Windows NT 4 PHP Version: 4.0.4pl1 Assigned To: hholzgra New Comment: There were some fixes in this code..please try this snapshot: http://snaps.php.net/win32/php4-win32-STABLE-latest.zip Previous Comments: ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2002-04-11 05:49:45] wayne.cope@sitel.co.uk No, this has not been changed in 4.1.2. I have downloaded the source code for release 4.1.2 and the buffer used for sending mail is still hardcoded to 4K, and so still causes a GPF when trying to send an email larger than 4K (a buffer very easily broken by sending attachments for example).

You need to change the line #define MAIL_BUFFER_SIZE (1024*4) /* 4k buffer */ to #define MAIL_BUFFER_SIZE (1024*1024) /* 1Mb buffer */ in file "sendmail.h" to make this function work. Ideally, the buffer size should be calculated dynamically, but that'll take a bit longer of course ! Can someone try and pop this change into the next release please. TTFN !
