The sending process logs email activity. That could help you sort this out.

Here is what I'm seeing if I use too many characters....

What should be:
[sendmail to=3Dsteve@f= austtheatre.org&from=3Dsteve@fausttheatre.o= rg&subject=3D1234567&content-type=3Dtext/html]
<= span style=3D"white-space:nowrap">
Looks like this:
endmail to=3Dsteve@fausttheatre.org&from= =3Dsteve@fausttheatre.org&subject=3D1234567= 8&content-type=3Dtext/html]

The = first two characters are being truncated from my code if I put the 8 in the= subject line.
This has got me stumped.

The [sendmail] won't work if the 'to' address, or the &#= 39;from' address, or the 'subject line' has too many characters= .
It works fine when the subject line = is 7 characters, but not 8.
It wo= rks fine when the 'to' or 'from' domain is 12 characters, b= ut not when it is 23 characters.

Unfortunately, the domain name is 23 characters.

Would thi= s be a setting that my host has set up in his email control panel?

Thanks again to all of you who wrote back to me.
