Hi,
I have two questions. Am relatively new to PHP and
couldn't get the mail() function to send a bcc (i.e. blind copy).
My ISP (unix server) has v. 4.1.2 installed. After much ado,
I discovered that apparently this is a known bug and that
PHP versions < 4.3 do not support the Bcc: header element.
Can't send any Bcc'd mail. It's supposed to have been fixed
in v. 4.3.
I wrote to my ISP and inquired about when v 4.3. might be
expected to replace 4.1.2 on their server. A support
department rep wrote back and told me that they would
never install a "beta version" and that

He also referred me to a blurb on the php.net Home page
reading:
PHP 4.3.0pre2 Released
http://qa.php.net/
[27-Oct-2002] PHP 4.3.0pre2 is available for download.
This is the second pre-release version and incorporates a
large number of bug fixes since the first pre-release.
Still, to help us catch as many bugs as possible, please
download it and start testing.
... So, my questions are - Is the tech support guy correct?
and Is there a workaround for sending a bcc using mail()
with v.4.1.2?
Thanks,
Jill
