#23507 [Opn->Fbk]: extra newlines in mail header

ID: 23507 Updated by: wez@php.net Reported By: matpoc at lenta dot ru -Status: Open +Status: Feedback Bug Type: Mail related Operating System: FreeBSD 4.7-RELEASE-p4 PHP Version: 4.3.2RC2 New Comment: We can read RFCs too... but what we really want is a short self-contained script that reproduces the problem (which is why we directed you to the how-to-report page). We don't want an edited version of the script and the results, because we have no way to be sure that we are seing the same results as you. Previous Comments: ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2003-05-06 23:03:15] matpoc at lenta dot ru RFC2822 "Internet Message Format" ftp://ftp.rfc-editor.org/in-notes/rfc2822.txt says: A message consists of header fields (collectively called "the header of the message") followed, optionally, by a body. The header is a sequence of lines of characters with special syntax as defined in this standard. The body is simply a sequence of characters that follows the header and is separated from the header by an empty line (i.e., a line with nothing preceding the CRLF). So, in my example all lines after "To: site@domain.tld" line interpreted as message body. Therefor mail programm can't see other headers and can't understand it's Subject, charset, etc. BTW, mail function works correctly in PHP 4.3.1, and after upgrade to 4.3.2RC2 mail finctionality was broken. So, I downgraded to PHP 4.3.1. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2003-05-06 17:43:35] wez@php.net Not enough information was provided for us to be able to handle this bug.
