Bug #15755 Updated: Can't send MAIL

ID: 15755 Updated by: glen@starrett.nosolicit.name Reported By: milamamu@tiscalinet.it Status: Open Bug Type: Mail related Operating System: Windows 98 PHP Version: 4.1.0 New Comment: I have seen something similar, but it turned out to be nothing at all PHP releated. The \n vs. \r\n makes the difference to some mail transports, and they will reject mail with plain LF characters. That is to say, if you are using \n and NOT \r\n, it will work for SOME destination email addresses but not others and it is entirely dependent on if you have a picky (that is, adhering to standards) or loose (non-standard but common) mail transport in between you and the email address you are sending to.
