Hi,

With the following script :

<?
$headers_html  = "MIME-Version: 1.0\n";
$headers_html .= "Content-Type: text/html; charset=\"iso-8859-1\"\n";
$headers_html .= "From: Presence PC - Lettre express <serveur@presence-pc.com>\n";
$headers_html .= "Return-Path: serveur@presence-pc.com\n";

mail('joc@presence-pc.com', 'test', 'test', $headers_html);
?>

Using PHP-4.3.2RC1, all works just fine and I'm receiving :

'test'

Using PHP-4.3.2RC2, header infos are no longer rightly interpreted, and I'm receiving a mail containing :

'MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/html; charset="iso-8859-1"
From: Presence PC - Lettre express <serveur@presence-pc.com>



test'

(ie only Return-Path header info is interpreted)

Regards,
  Jocelyn Fournier

This bug (or a variant of it) still seems to exist (current in version 4.3.6 build May 26 2004).
My experiments have show that if I add a 'MIME-Version: 1.0' header then PHP adds an extra carriage return newline after it.
This code (taken from Wordpress) reproduces the problem:

$message_headers = "MIME-Version: 1.0\r\n"
. "$from\r\n"
. "Content-Type: text/plain; charset=\"" . get_settings('blog_charset') . "\"\r\n";
@mail($user->user_email, $subject, $notify_message, $message_headers);

There is an extra blank line after the MIME-Version header.

If you replace the MIME-Version header with "Reply-To: fred\r\n" you do NOT get an extra blank line.
If you replace it with "X-Hello: world\r\n" then again you do get the blank line.

It appears to be related to whether the header in question is a 'well known' header???
