| Request: | Send a blank email to php-dev+get-23455@lists.php.net to get a copy of this message | ||
From: stevenf@shellnet.co.uk
Operating system: All (presumably)
PHP version: 4.0.1pl2
PHP Bug Type: Feature/Change Request
Bug description: sendmail / mail() command
php.ini lists the default sendmail_path as being set to 'sendmail -t'. However if form
output is taken and passed to mail(), which contains a \n.\n sequence (maybe \r's too), mail()
can effectivly stop transmitting text when only halfway through.
The sendmail(8) manpage explains -i as:
Ignore dots alone on lines by themselves in incoming mes-
sages. This should be set if you are reading data from a
file.
Therefore consider this a request to change the default sendmail settings for the mail() function.
Thanks;
