Alright,
first of all, in E-Mail Headers every param needs to be written in a
seperate line, therefore following will work even with multiple recipients:
$recipients = array();
$header = explode( "\n" , $header );
foreach ( $header AS $param ) {
$param = trim ( $param );
if ( strtolower( substr( $param , 0 , 3 ) ) == 'to:' ) {
$recipients[] = trim ( substr( $param , 3 ) );
}
}
This will match every of these:
'TO:[EMAIL PROTECTED]'
' TO: [EMAIL PROTECTED]'
' TO:Mr Baz <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>'
' TO:[EMAIL PROTECTED],[EMAIL PROTECTED],[EMAIL PROTECTED]'
etc. pp

PS: I'm not sure about wether 'TO :' is allowed or not - sad thing :-)
