Re: bug in mini_sendmail

[Jérôme Desquilbet]

Sorry for this new message. Maybe not that simple. In my case (DokuWiki 
in the regular chrooted Apache), simply replacing mini_sendmail by 
femail doesn't work. I'll investigate.
Thanks,
  Jérôme.

OK, why not? Thank you for pointing me to femail, I'll try it instead. 
I'll let you decide, I am new to OpenBSD, trying to install my first web 
server.
Thanks again,
  Jérôme.

I'd be more in favour of removing mini_sendmail and pointing
people at femail instead, it's quite a lot more sane...

mini_sendmail-chroot-1.3.6p0 static mini_sendmail for chrooted apache

has a problem: it doesn't handle well To: adresses with names, like
Firstname Lastname <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>

For example, the following test works:

mini_sendmail [EMAIL PROTECTED] -t -v
To: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
Subject: test
^D

but this one doesn't:

bin/mini_sendmail [EMAIL PROTECTED] -t -v
To: JD <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
Subject: test
^D

This bug has been already fixed in some places, but not the original

For a fix, see for example:

Thank you,
