Good question on spam filters.  No, I'm not seeing anything show up in the spam filters.  Also,
this is a pretty direct internal show, avoiding most of our spam filters.

Not to ask a silly question, but have you already checked that spam filters aren't rejecting
the mail, or that it's not otherwise being filtered out of view?

Description:
------------
If the body (msg) of the email starts with 'fe', the mail isn't sent.  mail() show
success, but mail is not received.  If I change the 'fe' so something else, it works fine.



PHP version if Fedora 19 php 5.5.7


Test script:
---------------
    $email_to = "cmeyer@cesa10.k12.wi.us";
    $email_cc = "it@cesa10.k12.wi.us";
    $email_subject = "Backup Verification";
    $email_body = "fe\r\n";  // <- seems to work fine but no mail delivered
//    $email_body = "mfe"\r\n"; <- works fine and mail delivered
    $headers = "From: backup@cesa10.k12.wi.us\n";

    if (!mail($email_to, $email_subject, $email_body, $headers))
    { print "Email failed\n"; }
    else
    { print "Email success\n"; }

Expected result:
----------------
mail should be received

Actual result:
--------------
mail not received, though mail() does not return an error.
