Hello,
I have a strange problem with the mail function on php4.0.6 running IIS5.
When I try to send an email with an attachment, two things happen:
On the webserver I get a dialog box: unknown has generated errors and will be closed by Windows. You will need to restart the program.
On the browser requesting the page no data comes back. After a long time I do get the following: The specified CGI application misbehaved by not returning a complete set of HTTP headers. The headers it did return are: ERROR: could not get the task list
Is anybody else having this problem? Any help would be greatly appreciated...
Here is the code i am using ...
?
