It may not be an answer to your problem but I suggest you try Zend_Mail from the Zend_Framework I've never say problems like these using it.
... found! I don't know why, but it was due to the PHPMailer version I was using (I know what you're thinking: "This guy blew the former download", but I can assure you that I downloaded the proper lib).
I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest. A good paper is one that people get drawn into because it reaches them ln some way.As for me WW11 to me, I think of the holocaust and the effect it had on the survivors, their families and those who stood by and did nothing until it was too late.
