For the record, could you tell me the name of the e-mail client(s) your end of people used at the time of the problem? Previous Comments: ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2007-03-27 00:44:59] quasar at aero dot ist dot utl dot pt After further reading of RFC2047 (http://www.ietf.org/rfc/rfc2047.txt) i have found this: Ordinary ASCII text and 'encoded-word's may appear together in the same header field. However, an 'encoded-word' that appears in a header field defined as '*text' MUST be separated from any adjacent 'encoded-word' or 'text' by 'linear-white-space'. This implies that the function's behavior is actually correct, however it still creates problems with some e-mail clients. I have filled this bug report following several bug reports on my end of people having e-mail clients inserting encoding tags in the middle of the subject. For example (verified in pine): "hello [UTF-8]ãll". Although it is now clear to me that the behaviour is in fact RFC2047 compliant, should it not be tweaked to make it more widely compatible with a greater variety e-mail clients? (Perhaps this should be moved to a feature request, and i am sorry for the "false positive", i should have done my homework more carefully) ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2007-03-26 19:18:26] [EMAIL PROTECTED] Could you please point me to an RFC which says the actual result is incorrect? ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2007-03-26 16:34:46] quasar at aero dot ist dot utl dot pt Description: ------------ When trying to send an e-mail with international character in the subject, mb_send_mail is expected to fully encode the subject string. However it only encodes the string form the first word containing the interantional characters on. Reproduce code: --------------- // Assuming $to, $message and $headers already defined $subject = "hello ãll"; mb_send_mail($to, $subject, $message, $headers); Expected result: ---------------- A fully encoded Subject header, in the form: Subject: ?UTF-8?B?SOMETHING?= Actual result: -------------- Received e-mail relevant headers, as you can see the hello part of the string, which has no international, characters is left unencoded: Subject: hello =?UTF-8?B?w6NsbA==?= Content-Type: text/html; charset=utf-8 Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit Mime-Version: 1.0 ------------------------------------------------------------------------ -- Edit this bug report at http://bugs.php.net/?id=40923&edit=1
