note 27520 added to function.imap-8bit

A comment on the "split-after-75-characters" phenomenon: By splitting lines up after 75 characters, the function's behaviour is complying to RFC2047 (http://www.ietf.org/rfc/rfc2047.txt) (which specifies a protocol for the representation of non-ASCII text in message headers), section "2. Syntax of encoded-words". A so called 'encoded word' has the following format: encoded-word = "=?" charset "?" encoding "?" encoded-text "?=" An 'encoded-word' may not be more than 75 characters long, including 'charset', 'encoding', 'encoded-text', and delimiters. If it is desirable to encode more text than will fit in an 'encoded-word' of 75 characters, multiple 'encoded-word's (separated by CRLF SPACE) may be used. hth WOT -- http://www.php.net/manual/en/function.imap-8bit.php http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=edit+27520 http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=delete+27520 http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=reject+27520
