[imp] Forwarding of attachments not consistent ...

Marc, 

That's the winning question.  I'm not sure.  I have been working on a few projects with PHP that utilize a lot of memory.  They are Intranet application involving uploading of very large (10mb) data imports.  We ran into some similar problems.  The uploading wasn't the problem but the processing of the file contents into array (similar to your problem below) was the problem.

As I'm no expert on the memory consumption of horde/imp I'll let the group fill in the rest.

k, then for todays stupid question, how do I calculate this?  The value I
set was in php.ini:

memory_limit = 8M      ; Maximum amount of memory a script may consume (8MB)

the above is the default ... the script itself is small, so I'm guessing
that what I'm getting is all the arrays and such causing it to grow?  how
does sendmail fit into that?
