#20056 [Fbk->Opn]: mail() hangs when e-mail is too big.

ID: 20056 User updated by: webmaster@a-display.net Reported By: webmaster@a-display.net -Status: Feedback +Status: Open Bug Type: Reproducible crash Operating System: Windows XP Pro PHP Version: 4.2.3 New Comment: The scripts no more hangs the machine, but ... does'nt work any more. Outlook express cant't recognise the mime format. The difference between the results of the same script on Linux/4.2.3 and XP/4.3 seem to be "\r\n\r\n" are changed to "\r\n". I'm not sure, but i think the double /r/n/r/n was compulsory in some cases to separate mime blocks Tried "\r\n \r\n" instead, witch is not changed but it does not work. Everything else "\r\n\r\n\n\r" ... is each time changed to "\r\n".

Whe have a function to send by e-mail a web page from our site, including pictures (mime multipart) if used. All works fine, but on our developpement system (XP/IIS) it seems that only very small message works (2kb ok, 7 kb hangs) To send mime compliant message all text is prepared in a single string $mtext and sent with: $is_sent=mail($to, $subject,"",$mtext); result is a send a report bug window to microsoft after a 5 sec wait. Printing text with flush() during script made us sure the bug is in the mail function. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ -- Edit this bug report at http://bugs.php.net/?id=20056&edit=1
