if i understood correct from the rfc: address can be (a.o.): [display-name] angle-addr where display-name should be a dot atom, or if not a dot atom, it should be a quoted string and thus the call should be: $send_status = mail('"test 1:2:3:4:5:6:7:8:9" <some@domain.net>', 'strange name test', 'hi')if i understood correct from the rfc: address can be (a.o.): [display-name] angle-addr where display-name should be a dot atom, or if not a dot atom, it should be a quoted string and thus the call should be: $send_status = mail('"test 1:2:3:4:5:6:7:8:9" <some@domain.net>', 'strange name test', 'hi') correct? think so, bec it works. sorry about registering it as a bug. i'm using a mailscript and expected it to work properly. and thus again: expect the unexpected. thanks, erik
