It seems like a bug. If you are stuck, you may want to try this package that comes with a mail() replacement function written in pure PHP named smtp_mail(). It works like mail but it overcomes certain limitations. Take a look at the test_smtp_mail.php example script. http://www.phpclasses.org/mimemessage You also need this for the delivery: http://www.phpclasses.org/smtpclass -- Regards, Manuel Lemos PHP professionals looking for PHP jobs http://www.phpclasses.org/professionals/ PHP Classes - Free ready to use OOP components written in PHP http://www.phpclasses.org/ -- PHP Windows Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php
