When using the mail() function, anything put into the body becomes malformed. Example:

mail("test@whatever.com","test","testing\n1...\n2...\n3...");

...results in the following email body...

testingatever.com
1...@whatever.com
2...@whatever.com
3...@whatever.com

The server it's sending to is an XMail server, but I don't think it's that. And frankly, I have no idea what's causing it...I get the same results on two different servers

Should have mentioned I'm using the ISAPI .dll version of PHP as opposed to the .exe version, on an IIS4 web server.

according to RFC... err, can't recall... you have to use CRLF (\r\n in PHP) to delimit lines in mail messages.

if that doesn't help, please reopen this bug report.
