You need quotes > in php.ini there, or it ignores the -t -i part cuz it's after a space.

It should be; it looks like the problem is in executing deliver. This is part of the Cyrus imap server distribution. I checked the sendmail.cf file, and I found this: # who I masquerade as (null for no masquerading) (see also $=M) DM I vaguely remember reading something about this at http://www.php.net/mail, from the commentary section: mauk@maatwerk.net 07-Sep-2000 04:30 On my server, sendmail replaced the From: and Reply_To: fields with the name of my webserver. The solution was to remove the masquarading option in sendmail.cf (CW macro). Mauk van der Laan This doesn't sound like my problem, but could it be the solution? I know this is getting OT, but . . . I would probably do better to avoid makeing deliver world executable, so is there another solution?
