    $longtext .= "a";
  }

      $testmail = "PHP Mail Bug Test\r\n"
      ."\r\n"
      ."------_=_NextPart_PHP_SPECIAL_000\r\n"
      ."Content-Type: text/plain\r\n"
      ."\r\nPHP Mail Bug Test\r\n\r\n"
      ."------_=_NextPart_PHP_SPECIAL_000\r\n"
      ."Content-Type: text/html;\r\n"
      ."        name=\"PHP Mail Bug Test.html\"\r\n"
      ."Content-Disposition: attachment;\r\n"
      ."        filename=\"PHP Mail Bug Test.html\"\r\n\r\n"
      .$longtext
      ."\r\n\r\n------_=_NextPart_PHP_SPECIAL_000--\r\n";

       "From: $mail\r\n"
      ."Reply-To: $mail\r\n"

      ."X-Mailer: PHP Mail Bug Test\r\n"
      ."MIME-Version: 1.0\r\n"
      ."Content-Type: multipart/mixed;\r\n"
      ."        boundary=\"----_=_NextPart_PHP_SPECIAL_000\"\r\n");

Btw, does not occour when you put in a \r\n every 100 chars or something. Only with a long list of non-breaking chars.

Sorry, but your problem does not imply a bug in PHP itself.  For a
list of more appropriate places to ask for help using PHP, please
visit http://www.php.net/support.php as this bug system is not the
appropriate forum for asking support questions. 

Thank you for your interest in PHP.

That's your MTA's issue.
