AFAIK, this is the first I've ever heard of probelms with mail() not sending to perfectly valid email addresses. Scalability issues and other performance problems, sure, but that's a different animal. Given the number of people that use PHP (and use mail(), especially) I would certainly think this problem would have been reported before if it were a real bug. So, to be blunt, you probably have a problem with your code, your SMTP server, the way you've configured PHP, or something other than mail(). It's easy to blame it on mail() and/or PHP, but I think you're barking up the wrong tree. Find a forgiving customer who reported the problem, ask for their help in troubleshooting it and then send some test emails from a completely different server, preferably on a *nix platform. (not because *nix is better than windows, but because *nix PHP doesn't use smtp for mail delivery) --kurt -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] To contact the list administrators, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
