note 30792 added to function.error-log

when using error_log to send email, not all elements of an extra_headers string are handled the same way. "From: " and "Reply-To: " header values will replace the default header values. "Subject: " header values won't: they are *added* to the mail header but don't replace the default, leading to mail messages with two Subject fields. <?php error_log("sometext", 1, "zigzag@my.domain", "Subject: Foo\nFrom: Rizzlas@my.domain\n"); ?> ---------------%<----------------------- To: zigzag@my.domain Envelope-to: zigzag@my.domain Date: Fri, 28 Mar 2003 13:29:02 -0500 From: Rizzlas@my.domain Subject: PHP error_log message Subject: Foo Delivery-date: Fri, 28 Mar 2003 13:29:03 -0500 sometext ---------------%<--------------------- quoth the docs: "This message type uses the same internal function as mail() does." mail() will also fail to set a Subject field based on extra_header data - instead it takes a seperate argument to specify a "Subject: " string. php v.4.2.3, SunOS 5.8 -- http://www.php.net/manual/en/function.error-log.php http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=edit+30792 http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=delete+30792 http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=reject+30792
