SMTP code in PHP is not good enough. It needs to be rewritten. For the time being, you need to use SMTP implemented by PHP script or use sendmail compatible MTA on Windows. (You may need to rebuild PHP under Windows to use MTA. I use PHP under Linux.) Yasuo Ohgaki Matthew Luchak wrote:
A script that formats and sends out an email using http vars fails with certain email addresses. I couldn't believe it when I saw this (not) happening. Using: MAIL( "$recip", "$subject", "$message", "$header" ); where $header="From: $email_required"; is passed from an HTML form, fails to mail with certain email addresses in the $email_required var. The same script in 4.04pl2 does not fail with the same addresses. Again, just to make this clear - this is an intermittent problem - I can send out 2000 emails and one of them will just not mail even though it is a perfectly valid email address. Any thoughts on this? ____________________________ Matthew Luchak Webmaster Kaydara Inc. mluchak@kaydara.com
