#22317 [Opn->Fbk]: mail() has address parsing problems

ID: 22317 Updated by: sniper@php.net Reported By: mark at virtualcreations dot com dot au -Status: Open +Status: Feedback Bug Type: Mail related Operating System: Win32 PHP Version: 4.3.0 New Comment: Please try using this CVS snapshot: http://snaps.php.net/php4-STABLE-latest.tar.gz For Windows: http://snaps.php.net/win32/php4-win32-STABLE-latest.zip Previous Comments: ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2003-02-20 00:07:49] mark at virtualcreations dot com dot au This just started happening with 4.3.0. Before that it was all fine. The problem only exists on Win32 - it works perfectly on Linux. Using the example from the manual, this works fine: mail("xx@yy.com", "My Subject", "Line 1"); But this returns FALSE and the message is not sent: mail("xx@yy.com, aa@bb.com", "My Subject", "Line 1"); However, THIS is fine (note the missing space): mail("xx@yy.com,aa@bb.com", "My Subject", "Line 1"); Also, I have yet to figure out a way to send a message where the recipient's NAME is also specified. For example, this fails: mail("Fred <xx@yy.com>", "My Subject", "Line 1"); Finally, when I use a BCC option, it is also dependent upon the placement of a space. For example, if I include a line that reads: $headers .= "Bcc:xx@yy.com\n"; it works as expected, but: $headers .= "Bcc: xx@yy.com\n"; fails. It doesn't make any difference if a "\r\n" is added to the end of the line. I repeat, all the problems above are NOT problems in Linux. Mark. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ -- Edit this bug report at http://bugs.php.net/?id=22317&edit=1
