Bug #15796 Updated: mail() doesn't work with qmail

ID: 15796 Updated by: rasmus@php.net Reported By: ted@tedlove.com Status: Bogus Bug Type: Mail related Operating System: RedHat 7.2 PHP Version: 4.1.2 New Comment: The php.net servers run qmail and mail() has always worked just fine. Previous Comments: ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2002-05-23 12:48:53] ffeingol@webmasters-resources.com I've been having the exact same problem (4.1.2 and 4.2.1). I did not post the bug yet because I can not determine for sure that it's a PHP problem. It appears that PHP is not able to open the pipe to qmail. I'm having the exact same problem with exec(). ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2002-02-28 19:42:14] yohgaki@php.net The bug system is not the appropriate forum for asking support questions.

I have tried the suggestions of changing the "sendmail_path" to: /usr/sbin/sendmail /var/qmail/bin/sendmail and /var/qmail/bin/qmail-inject (I have also tried the sendmail wrapper commands with -t and qmail-inject with -h) This short script segment: if (mail($to, $sub, $body)){ print ("MAIL SENT"); } else { print ("MAIL DIED"); } always returns "MAIL DIED". Qmail logs and mail logs show nothing. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ -- Edit this bug report at http://bugs.php.net/?id=15796&edit=1
