Bug #69859 [Opn]: imap_mail does not log

Edit report at https://bugs.php.net/bug.php?id=69859&edit=1 ID: 69859 Updated by: cmb@php.net Reported by: petr at jisa dot eu Summary: imap_mail does not log Status: Open Type: Bug Package: IMAP related PHP Version: 5.6.10 Block user comment: N Private report: N New Comment: Fascinating! Apparently, imap_mail() makes not much sense if the mail is going to be sent via sendmail_path; it's just a stripped down alternative implementation to mail() (does not log, does not protect from header injection, etc.) Only if the mail is going to be sent directly via SMTP it may (still) make sense to use this function, because it properly parses the address lists, although the mail() implementation also attempts this at least. It might make sense to implement imap_mail() on top of php_mail().

It can log to file or syslog. but imap_mail() doesn't provide any logging. Just silently send the email. Test script: --------------- imap_mail("dude@example.com","Test","Test mail"); Expected result: ---------------- imap_mail() should respect INI settings mail.log mail.add_x_header Actual result: -------------- imap_mail() - doesn't log (mail.log) - doesn't include uid/script to mail header (mail.add_x_header) Affected all latest PHP 5.x versions ------------------------------------------------------------------------ -- Edit this bug report at https://bugs.php.net/bug.php?id=69859&edit=1
