Strange character in header max number of BCC

    Hi,
    Some questions on the Bcc header:
    1) The \n character (see below), is that added by your plugin ? I do not see that from other plugins. You seem to come out with a string and not an array for the headers, but from what I read it should then be \r\n. It might also be my mail-log tool that is showing it incorrectly
    2) How many BCC recipients do you put max into 1 email ? Because putting too many might be seen as spam.
    Thanks,
    Pascal.

    Hi Pascal,

    I don’t put any BCCs at all. I loop over the recipient list and send one message to each recipient for that very reason: to avoid being flagged as spam.

    I’ll review the code regarding the headers and will update the ticket with what I find.

    Those are definitely NOT my headers. According to the codex:

    $headers
    (string or array) (optional) Mail headers to send with the message. For the string version, each header line (beginning with From:, Cc:, etc.) is delimited with a newline ("\r\n") (advanced)

    and I’m setting:

    $headers = sprintf( "From: %s <%s>\r\n", get_option( 'blogname' ), get_bloginfo( 'admin_email' ) );
$headers = apply_filters( 'bbpnns_extra_headers', $headers, $recipients, $subject, $body );

    Chances are that you are using the wrong plugin (bbPress Notify as opposed to bbPress Notify No-Spam), or something is hooking into bbpnns_extra_headers.

    Perhaps you are using some other mailing plugin such as wpMandrill?

    Argggh, you are right, nothing to see with your plugin. I deactivated it and the header is still the same. Sorry for that.
    Pascal.
