Please double-check the documentation available at http://www.php.net/manual/ and the instructions on how to report a bug at http://bugs.php.net/how-to-report.php Your php lacks the mail() function because during installation (configure phase) PHP was unable to fund sendmail or equivalent binary on your system. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2003-01-19 11:12:36] ciano at borgosatollo dot it I'm using the mail() function as I used to do in the older versions but what I'm getting is an error =((. script: <?php mail("foo@mail.org","prova","prova da legolas"); ?> error: Fatal error: Call to undefined function: mail() in /var/www/html/mail.php on line 2 this happens only with php 4.3.0, I read the changelog and ther was nothing reguarding this. thx for help ------------------------------------------------------------------------ -- Edit this bug report at http://bugs.php.net/?id=21752&edit=1
