I believe that sendmail would send the two emails. How could it know that the headers are not part of a new message? I haven't tested it yet, but to be on the safe side I put up some filters that chech for certain content in the form. If the content is there, then nothing gets sent to mail(). Just a little while the spammer sent me message with the form, regarding his opinion of myself, my mother, a horse, and a dead man. His IP was 80.172.48.102 Dotan Cohen http://lyricslist.com/lyrics/artist_albums/332/mccartney_paul.php McCartney, Paul Song Lyrics
I just tried it on my hosted account and only got the one email that I was supposed to get. Maybe there's an old sendmail exploit that would send the second mail?
