Request: Send a blank email to php-general+get-199398@lists.php.net to get a copy of this message
[snip] ... making me wonder if a local sendmail is handling the requests instead. With all of the above refering to sendmail, is there anyway that my mail() can actually be using qmail? [/snip] From http://www.php.net/mail, something you have not read apparently.... "For the Mail functions to be available, PHP must have access to the sendmail binary on your system during compile time. [LOOKIE HERE------>If you use another mail program, such as qmail or postfix, be sure to use the appropriate sendmail wrappers that come with them.<------END LOOKIE] PHP will first look for sendmail in your PATH, and then in the following: /usr/bin:/usr/sbin:/usr/etc:/etc:/usr/ucblib:/usr/lib. It's highly recommended to have sendmail available from your PATH. Also, the user that compiled PHP must have permission to access the sendmail binary. "
