Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: php-mail

Php mail in Kubuntu is currently version 1.1.6
This version is years old, and has numerous bugs which are fixed in more recent versions, such a accurate error reporting.

1) # lsb_release -rd
Description:    Ubuntu 8.04.1
Release:        8.04
2) # apt-cache policy php-mail
php-mail:
  Installé : 1.1.6-2
  Candidat : 1.1.6-2
 Table de version :
 *** 1.1.6-2 0
        500 http://be.archive.ubuntu.com hardy/universe Packages
        100 /var/lib/dpkg/status
3) On sending mail using a mail server that rejects me for whatever reason, I expect to see the error message that the server sent me back (Relaying denied, or message too big, depending on what condition I set up on the server)

<?
include('Mail.php');

// Here we deliberately conect to a server and attempt third-party relay
// it should fail with "Relaying denied. Proper authentication required."
// but instead fails with "Invalid response code received from server"
$smtp = array("host" => '127.0.0.1', "port" => 25);

$mail = Mail::factory("smtp", $smtp);
$headers = array("From" => "alain at yahoo.com", "Subject" => "Test Mail");
$body="This is a test!";
for($i=0; $i < 17000; $i++) {
  $body .= "aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa";
 }
$ret=$mail->send("alain at xyz.lu", $headers, $body);

if(PEAR::isError($ret)) {
  echo($ret->getMessage());
 } else {
  echo("<p>Message sent: </p>");
 }

?>


4) I get a generic error message "Invalid response code received from server", but the actual message is lost.

This problem is fixed in 1.1.14, but still exists in 1.1.6-2 as shipped
with Kubuntu 8.04.1
