When using the mail command in PHP3RC4-win32,
a mailserver with FreeBSD and Sendmail 8.8.6, 
the extra headers aren't passed on correctly.

A very easy workaround is to pass ekstra headers 
at the end of the subject string instead:

   mail("$rcpt", "Subject\r\nReply-To: Thomas Flemming <thomasf@kirov.eunet.no\r\nX-Mailer: PHP", 
        "$msg");

First off,
read the docs, put extra headers in the 4th argument.  Secondly, mail() is fixed in latest cvs.


Oh, and third, mail() on nt doesnt use sendmail.  It uses our own code, so it's not quite as flexible as the unix counterpart.
