OK, I found the problem, folks !!
If you want to send messages in Cc: and Bcc: and personnalize to name
of the To: recipients, I found a topic in newsgroup, you have to :
put all adresses (including To:, Cc: and Bcc: adress) in the $to field
of mail function and then in the header, you put in to: bcc: and cc:
the correct adresses... By this way, the mail function will properly
put the adresses in the right fields, example :
$to = "[EMAIL PROTECTED], [EMAIL PROTECTED], [EMAIL PROTECTED]"
$from = "Test PHP <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>\n";
$headers = "To: Nono <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>\n";
$headers .= "cc: Admin CEnet <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>\n";
$headers .= "Bcc: Hidden test <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>";
mail ($to,"my subject","my (nice !) body","From: $from".$headers);
It works...
But now the real bug (yes it is !!) is when typing "Cc:" instead of
"cc:" => It looks like there's a emalloc error allocating -875642131
bytes (the number is not ever the same)... Think I'll open a new bug
entry !!!

i'd suggest one thing - try this (it will give more light if the
problem is in your mailserver):
telnet localhost 25
helo there
mail from: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
rcpt to: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
data
from: "your name" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
to: "name 1" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>, "name 2" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>, [EMAIL PROTECTED]
subject: some subject
some nice body

First, I tried making mail() function work() on a Win2k - IIS 5.0
server and on Win98SE - Apache 1.3.19 both with PHP 4.0.4pl1.
there are several things wrong (so far it wouldn't be me the problem
;-) ) :
- first :
mail ("Arnaud <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>","A subject here","A message body
here",...);
(as mentioned in PHP manual), It won't work, i have a "Warning: Server
error on blabla.php3:lineXX" but if the "To:" Field is replace by just
an email adress : mail("[EMAIL PROTECTED]",....); this would work... So I
can't send mails with the name of the recipients properly set (just
their email adress)...
NB: Multiple "To:" Recipients works but only with email adresses
That's not the most important problem for me, the most important is Cc:
and Bcc: won't work.
The manual mentions to add From: Cc: and Bcc: information, in the
fourth parameters (the headers)... So I tried :
mail("[EMAIL PROTECTED]","A subject here","A (very nice !) body
here","From: The Administrator <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>\nBcc: My Friend
<[EMAIL PROTECTED]>\nCc: My Father <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>");
it obviously doesn't work :-(( (that's why I'm writing you !!)
There are several things to say :
- The From: section of headers works well, nothing to say about it...
No problem
- Seems the Bcc: part is just ignored, nothing happen, no mail is sent
to Bcc: address
- For Cc:, when typed "cc:" (all lowercase) seems to be ignored but
when typed "Cc:" => It looks like there is a memory leak or something
like that both IIS and Apache return me a "emalloc() : unable to
allocate -851230 bytes"... The number of unallocated bytes is not ever
the same but this is the same error message...
Extra info :
- On both config, the mail server is a local mail server (FTGate
2.2.2.1)
- It seems that this bug is similar to #9858 and #9859 in the bug
database
