ID: 28038 Comment by: webmaster at cjr3 dot com Reported By: jordi at jcanals dot net Status: Open Bug Type: Mail related Operating System: win32 only PHP Version: 5CVS, 6CVS (2008-10-24) New Comment:
This so-called "bug" isn't so much a bug considering you should pass the headers correctly (as you always should). Consider the following: Content-Type: text/html From: Someone <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Reply-To: Someone <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> As Windows (and other Microsoft products do) follows standards so strict that at times can aggravate developers who are used to using libraries fixing their mistakes for them, you'll need to pass proper information for it to work properly. The "work around" shouldn't be used because you're still modifying PHP's intentions, which you shouldn't be doing unless absolutely necessary. Furthermore, you do not have to use <Name<[EMAIL PROTECTED]>> or <Name <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>> for it to work (in fact, this does work, but it does cut off after the first '>' and makes your name look stupid in the "from" for the email.

It still <Foo<[EMAIL PROTECTED]>>. I also tried "Foo" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> without success. I only can send mail without give name for sender or receiver. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2008-09-16 15:38:01] david at thedatabridge dot com I had the same problem until I changed the format of my headers. I had this problem with this style: "From: Foo Bar <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>" fixed by using this style: "From: Foo Bar<[EMAIL PROTECTED]>" Don't include space between Name and <email> and you should be ok! :P ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2008-09-11 13:11:19] andreas at pcdaemon dot gr Yes this worked fine for me. Thanks ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2008-09-07 08:53:17] renouard_roch at hotmail dot fr cool ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2008-09-01 12:11:00] anon at anon dot com Workaround is: Set the following before calling the mail function: ini_set('sendmail_from', '[EMAIL PROTECTED]); ------------------------------------------------------------------------ The remainder of the comments for this report are too long.
