Bug #12335: mail() function returns false but the email was sent.

From: sascha.winkler@ks.sel.alcatel.de Operating system: Sun Solaris 2.6 PHP version: 4.0.6 PHP Bug Type: Mail related Bug description: mail() function returns false but the email was sent. I had first the bug with id 12024 and I have fixed it like described in the bug report. Now I can send mails, but the mail() function returns false altough the mail was sent. I use the following script to test the mail() function. <?php $mail_to = "sascha.winkler@t-online.de"; $mail_subject = "PHP test mail() gesendet obwohl failed gemeldet."; $mail_body = " i hope that this mail() function works ! \n"; $mail_body .= " this is supposed to come on the second line \n"; $mail_body .= " and this on the third line \n"; if (mail($mail_to, $mail_subject, $mail_body)) echo "Successfully sent the email \"$mail_subject\" to $mail_to ."; else echo "Failed to send the e-mail \"$mail_subject\"." ; ?> -- Edit bug report at: http://bugs.php.net/?id=12335&edit=1
