Re: Mail() Not working

Ummm, you both might want to take a look at: http://www.php.net/manual/en/function.mail.php as well as: http://www.php.net/manual/en/ref.mail.php Rick, you can't specify the mail program in any of the arguments for the mail() command. Kevin, I bet your problem is in your php.ini script. Make sure sendmail_path is configured correctly for your server - notice that SMTP only has to be identified for Win32 installations. You must set sendmail_path correctly for this to work on *n[iu]x systems. And for future reference, since there was no database content in the question, php-general would have been a better place for the question. Rick Emery wrote:

It should look like: $email = "/bin/sendmail"; $to = "kmaynard@mac.com"; $subj = "A test message"; $body = "This is the body of the message"; $hdr = "Reply-to: me@qwerty.com"; mail ($email, $to, $subj, $body, $hdr);

In response to Kevin's question:

I have been unable to get the mail() function to work. my php.ini file has the following line in it: SMTP = mail.attbi.com
