headers problem with php mail() method
« on: July 15, 2006, 10:53:10 PM »
Hi

I love roundcubemail, just great stuff guys, well done.

I have one little issue, I use php mail() sending method, I sent email to a buddy who uses Eudora for a client, he said he couldnt see any message body and pointed me to the fact that there are blank lines in the headers, see examples below. A blank line in headers is defined in the RFC to be the end of the headers. I had a quick look at the code but couldnt readily see where the blank lines were being added. I tested the smtp method and it doesnt appear to have this problem. Thunderbird, and rcmail itself, dont seem to mind these blank lines in headers, does that mean they are not RFC compliant, when Eudora is?
