given:
  $to = "foo@foo-foo.com";

command:
  mail($to,"test","test");

result:
  warning: server error line xxx
------------------

if sending to an address without the - in the domain, mail() works fine so i'm sure it's not a config problem.  also, the - address is valid and i can send mail via a mail client.  

the - addresses worked in v4.2.1

Please try using this CVS snapshot:

  http://snaps.php.net/php4-latest.tar.gz
 
For Windows:
 
  http://snaps.php.net/win32/php4-win32-latest.zip

I cannot replicate this bug, it sounds like the SMTP server is rejecting this domain. If latest CVS does not work, see if you can successfuly send email to an address with a '-' in it manually via the SMTP server your php is using.

just installed new version 4.2.3.

same problem as before.  email won't send via mail() function to an address with '-' in the domain.  email can send through the smtp server php is using if i use client like outlook.

You were asked to use the latest snapshot, not release.
There were some mail() related fixes in it, so please try it out:

 http://snaps.php.net/win32/php4-win32-latest.zip

And make sure you replace ALL old binaries with the
new ones from that package. Especially php4ts.dll
