ID: 14981 Comment by: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Reported By: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Status: Bogus Bug Type: Mail related Operating System: Unix PHP Version: 4.1.0 New Comment:
It's wrong to write this off as Bogus prematurely. It could still be the case that PHP has a problem with passing the correct information to sendmail. It may be that PHP needs to internally perform some kind of replacement on email addresses containing '-' characters (etc?) with escape characters. Perhaps when the sendmail gets the information from PHP, the email address is in an unacceptable format. Who knows? I've asked for diagnostics to be done on the mail server in question. Previous Comments: ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2002-01-11 08:00:54] [EMAIL PROTECTED] then it's the mail server on that system that doesn't get it, mail() on unix just puts together a message from the paramters you gave it without further processing and passes it transparently to the sendmail command please contact your ISP for further investigation ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2002-01-11 07:08:04] [EMAIL PROTECTED] I'm not running it, my ISP is. Anyway, excuse the error, it's on unix. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2002-01-11 05:51:44] [EMAIL PROTECTED] there finaly is an Apache OS now? great ;) no, serious, what kind of operating system are you runnig this on, windows or *nix? ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2002-01-10 17:59:18] [EMAIL PROTECTED] The following example script: $r = "[EMAIL PROTECTED]"; $s = "Message submitted at website"; $m = "From: " . $name . ", email: " . $email . "\n\n" . $message; $h = "From: " . $email . "\r\n"; mail ($r, $s, $m, $h); echo "<script language=\"javascript\">window.alert (\"Thankyou, your message have been sent!\")</script>"; ought to send mail to the specified address, but does not. Or, at least, mail does not arrive. It works with all email addresses we have tried except those on this domain (ie. 'the-total-solution.com', which seems to suggest a problem with PHP, possibly relating to the fact that the domain contains hyphens? Emails from other sources are correctly reaching this address and others in the domain. Escaping by using the address "info@the\-total\-solution.com" doesn't solve the problem either. Having raised this problem with other developers, who also tested it, we can only conclude that the problem is in PHP. I am not running PHP myself, my webserver is, so I can't give any information about PHP modules / backtrace.
