Configuration: PHP 4.0.6 on a Windows NT System with IIS 3

Calling mail() with an "Cc:"-headerline in the "additional_headers" (4th) argument
results in an crash of the php module and the webserver. If the "Cc:"-string is
commented out, everything works fine.

Error: "PHP has encountered an Access Violation at 0177B474"

Script:

<?php
setlocale ("LC_TIME", "");

$recp = "bernd.sluka@kmz.de";
$subject = "Test";
$body = "Test\n";

$EMail="bernd.sluka@kmz.de";

if ( mail($recp . $cc, $subject, $body , "Cc: test@kmz.de\n" ) )
{
  print "Mail ok!";
} else {
  print "No mail today!";
};
?>

Some comments and one correction:

1. The Server is an IIS, Version _4_

2. I've now installed PHP 4.1.1 and the problem remains.

3. I'm using the SAPI-Module. When using php.exe the error
    changes to an allocation error (and the webserver does not
    crash):
    "FATAL: emalloc(): Unable to allocate -11967191 bytes"

One last addition:

Using "CC:" instead of "Cc:" works and does NOT crash.
Strange!

This bug has been fixed in CVS. You can grab a snapshot of the
CVS version at http://snaps.php.net/. In case this was a documentation 
problem, the fix will show up soon at http://www.php.net/manual/.
In case this was a PHP.net website problem, the change will show
up on the PHP.net site and on the mirror sites.
Thank you for the report, and for helping us make PHP better.
