Description:
------------
Please note, I have READ ticket #30226 - this person was right, but for
the wrong reasons. The mail() function is not RFC822 compliant:

BEGIN RFC822 SNIPPET >>>

3.2.  HEADER FIELD DEFINITIONS

These rules show a field meta-syntax, without regard for the particular
 type  or internal syntax.  Their purpose is to permit detection of
fields; also, they present to  higher-level parsers an image of each
field as fitting on one line.

field =  field-name ":" [ field-body ] CRLF
 
<<< END RFC822 SNIPPET

All header fields inserted by PHP's mail() function are only separated
with LF. Note that this causes issues with RFC822 compliant MTAs. The
file where this is occuring is in ext/standard/mail.c, lines 228-233.
As it turns out, probably anywhere you are doing LF you should be doing
CRLF.

Reproduce code:
---------------
<?php

mail("[EMAIL PROTECTED]", "RFC822 problems", "This message fails
RFC822 compliance!");

?>

Expected result:
----------------
The generated mail message should be:

To: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
Subject: RFC822 problems\r\n
\r\n
This message fails RFC822 compliance!\r\n

Actual result:
--------------
To: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
Subject: RFC822 problems\n
\n
This message fails RFC822 compliance!\n
