-- System Information: Debian Release: 4.0 APT prefers stable APT policy: (1000, 'stable') Architecture: amd64 (x86_64) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/bash Kernel: Linux 2.6.18bergfex070821 Locale: [EMAIL PROTECTED], [EMAIL PROTECTED] (charmap=ISO-8859-15) Versions of packages php5 depends on: ii libapache2-mod-php5 5.2.0-8+etch7 server-side, HTML-embedded scripti ii php5-common 5.2.0-8+etch7 Common files for packages built fr php5 recommends no packages. -- no debconf information The manual of function mail() says the subject must not contain newline characters, however they are required to fold long header fields according to RFC2822 2.2.3., so most mailing sripts like PEAR::Mail_Mime insert linefeeds into long subjects. Linefeed in subjects are working fine in PHP 4.4.4-8+etch4 and PHP 5.2.4-1+b1 (sid), however in the stable version PHP 5.2.0-8+etch7 "\n" is removed from the subject. "\r\n" works, however postfix requires "\n". Example: <?php $subject = "=?ISO-8859-1?Q?Bugreport_Debian_PHP_5.2.0-8+etch7_=F6=FC=E4_(sp?=\n =?ISO-8859-1?Q?ecial_Characters)?="; $to = '[EMAIL PROTECTED]'; $body = 'some text'; $header = 'From: [EMAIL PROTECTED]'; mail($to, $subject, $body, $header); ?> It would be nice if "\n" in subjects is accepted by the mail function in the stable version of PHP, too. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
