Bug description: gethostbyname can resolve not existing hosts ;)
Hi,
try this:
echo(gethostbyname("gmx.de5"))
output is: 62.75.134.200
in fact, this domain doesn't exist, only gmx.de exists.
('host gmx.de5' on the server reports an error)
this behavior is bad when for example using getbyhostname to validate an
email address, because an email send to [EMAIL PROTECTED] would surely not
arrive...
