Previous Comments: ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2005-10-14 16:34:00] nyvsld at gmail dot com Description: ------------ in page http://www.php.net/manual/en/function.mail.php there is conflict between quote 1 and quote 2, on the form of the first parameter to mail(), about whether we can pass `somebody <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>' as the `to' parameter to mail(), see below: -----quote 1----- Parameters to Receiver, or receivers of the mail. The formatting of this string must comply with RFC 2822. Some examples are: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [EMAIL PROTECTED], [EMAIL PROTECTED] User <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> User <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>, Another User <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> -----quote 1 end ----- -----quote 2----- Notes ... As such, the to parameter should not be an address in the form of "Something <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>". The mail command may not parse this properly while talking with the MTA. -----quote 2 end ---- Reproduce code: --------------- N/A Expected result: ---------------- mail('[EMAIL PROTECTED]', ...) or mail('somebody <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>') ? ------------------------------------------------------------------------ -- Edit this bug report at http://bugs.php.net/?id=34872&edit=1
