Bug description: mail func strips linefeeds from subject
Before sending an email, first I'm using mb_encode_mimeheader() to prepare
the subject (it's very important because of the Central European national
characters)
$subject =
mb_encode_mimeheader(
trim($_POST['i_subject']),
'iso-8859-2',
'Q',
"\n\t"
);
\n\t is used, because e-mail RFCs state, that long lines should look be
broken like this:
Subject: very long subject etc. etc. and will
continue here
The problem exactly: mail() function strips the \n characters, this way
the e-mails are sent in a non-standard way (even 200+ characters long
subject lines), and therefore some servers and/or mail reading softwares
fail to transfer/display the email correctly.
