When connecting to a Microsoft Exchange Server (acad.ursinus.edu:25), pear/net/SMTP.php fails to correctly parse the server response in the ValidateAndParseResponse() function. the code segment: 

1} else {
2    $reply_code = strtok($this->lastline, '-');
3    if (strcmp($code, $reply_code)) {
4	$this->code = $reply_code;
5	return true;
6    }
7}

is incorrect on line 3. We want this to return true (as it does above the code shown) when "if(!(strcmp($code, $reply_code)))" returns true. Without this change, The code will not parse valid responses from the server if they are followed with a dash. 
I downloaded the most recent version of php just a few days ago, and it contains this error. I tried to verify that this error still exists by using the CVS, but I could not find the net/SMTP.php file there. If it has been fixed, I apologize for the repitition.

peace
