From: mschube@earthlink.net Operating system: Caldera Openlinux 2.2 PHP version: 3.0.12 PHP Bug Type: Misbehaving function Bug description: popen in _php3_mail() function doesn't call sendmail correctly when sendmails The popen() function just calls php3_ini.sendmail_path when sending email under Linux ... neewer sendmails require that the recipient names be specified on the command line as well as being in the To: line ... under my system, calls to mail were failing ...when I checked the log, I saw that the nrcpts value for sendmail was 0 even though I was passing a valid recipient name. The sendmail in my php3.ini is sendmail_path = '/usr/sbin/sendmail'; I am not a great C programmer, so I won't send in the code I used at home to fix this problem cause I am sure it is not the most efficient / pretty code ;).
