Description:
------------
I have PHP setup as a CGI and am using qmail as my mail server.
When I use the mail() function, on success, I do not get a true return
on the function. I get no return.
On failure, I do get a false return.
Reproduce code:
---------------
<?php
if (!mail('email@address.com','test','test','From:
email@address.com'))
echo "An error occurred";
else
echo "no error occurred";
?>
Expected result:
----------------
Expect to see "no error occurred" and email sent.
Actual result:
--------------
The email gets sent but I get a "An error occurred" message.
