Sorry, but your problem does not imply a bug in PHP itself.  For a

visit http://www.php.net/support.php as this bug system
is not the
appropriate forum for asking support questions. 

Thank you for your interest in PHP.

User error.

My mistake.
There is a line "BCC:\n" in the header.
I must have done something wrong in the testing.
My apologies, for wasting your time.

Unable to replicate with PHP4-LATEST.

Is it possible your To: address has a coma at the end?  The way the
Win32 sendmail code is written a "blank" recipient will be sent as just
RCPT TO:<>.

Issue a var_dump( $t_recipient); prior to sending the mail to be
certain it doesn't have a coma at the end.

Also, if you include headers with blank Cc: or Bcc: lines they will
also exhibit this behavior.

just to clarify.
The code is:
$result = mail( "aa@aa.com", "sub", "msg");
