It can if you're trying to process a borked image... I've had imagecreatefromjpeg() eat memory up to almost 50x the size of the image before finally deciding it can't handle it and crapping out. That was *after* running it through getimagesize() with no problem at all.

okay - good point - but in this case the OP is reading in an html template file, just a string of 20.7Kb, what could go wrong there?

this is probably one issue... the template is an HTML template containing images like <img src="http://www.brainguide.com/xxx"/>. How does PHP handle this stuff? I suppose that it is just a string and the image at the URL is not really read, or am I wrong? The newsletter does not have any attachements.

Now you're not making any sense at all... Either your newsletter has the images in it, or it doesn't.

Embedded images are different to images with a href. To embed images, you need to read them in to memory and attach them (much the same as a regular attachment). Referencing a href like that doesn't do anything, it's just part of the string. -- Postgresql & php tutorials http://www.designmagick.com/
