win32 mail function is'nt able to send email > 4 KByte
In sendmail.c (Win32 specific code) a buffer limit mail size to 4 Kb so
it's impossible to send mail with attachments (like a little .doc > 4Kb)
The only things to do is to increase buffer (tested) but it's not a pretty solution.

I don't believe this should be marked as "Misbehaving Function". ??
Maybe "Feature Request", or "Documentation Problem"? Leaving for
now, wait for feedback from reporter or core team.

win32/senmail.h
#define  MAIL_BUFFER_SIZE               (1024*4)        // 4k buffer$
All work if total mail size is under MAIL_BUFFER_SIZE
you have to increase MAIL_BUFFER_SIZE to send greater size mail !!!???

Marking as a DUP and a feature request.

Moving the buffer size to php.ini (thanks joey) seems to be the good solution
There is an other problem: If you exceed the buffer size php crash !? It's not very smart if you have no control over the mail size (add an error message).
Thanks to all.

Moving this to a "Feature Request". It seems to me that MAIL_BUFFER_SIZE is a good

candidate for an .ini switch...is that doable, or does it have to be compiled in?

Is this problem still recent?
