label readability

[Steve Lime]

MapServer only supports a single pixel wide font outline via the OUTLINECOLOR option, sorry.

Hi David,
 I've tried many times with the shadowsize without success. I want to get a 
something like the shadow but around all the letter and not just an offset 
part. It could be something like two labels, one with size 2 and the other 
with 4, then I will get what I'm looking for ;)
