mail() returns FALSE, no err msg

[Gerhard Buergmann]

Sometimes my mail() function returns FALSE, but there is no error message.
Error reporting is set to E_ALL.

It seems to be a problem of the bcc: line.
I use:

$headers .= "Bcc: aaaa@aaa.aa,bbb b@bbb.bb,cccc@c cc.cc\n";

I currently have approx. 30 addresses in the line.
Are there any limits?
And how can I get an error message?


Thanks,
Gerhard

Does it work if you use \r\n instead? Some mailers might be more picky
about line endings.

Just a thought.

It works with one, two, maybe tree adresses, but not with 10 or 20.
Since there is no error message, I cannot locate the problem.
