Hi,

I have two questions.   Am relatively new to PHP and
couldn't get the mail() function to send a bcc (i.e. blind copy).
My ISP (unix server) has v. 4.1.2 installed.  After much ado, 
I discovered that apparently this is a known bug and that
PHP versions < 4.3 do not support the Bcc: header element.
Can't send any Bcc'd mail.   It's supposed to have been fixed
in v. 4.3.

I wrote to my ISP and inquired about when v 4.3. might be
expected to replace 4.1.2 on their server.   A support 
department rep wrote back and told me that they would 
never install a "beta version" and that

are betas.
He also referred me to a blurb on the php.net Home page
reading:

   PHP 4.3.0pre2 Released
   http://qa.php.net/
   [27-Oct-2002] PHP 4.3.0pre2 is available for download. 
   This is the second pre-release version and incorporates a 
   large number of bug fixes since the first pre-release. 
  Still, to help us catch as many bugs as possible, please
  download it and start testing.

... So, my questions are - Is the tech support guy correct?
and Is there a workaround for sending a bcc using mail()
with v.4.1.2?

Thanks,
Jill
