Re: Does not deliver mail

If PHP succeeds in getting the mail through to your internal box, then it's almost-for-sure your MAIL SERVER that is refusing to send mail to the outside world. Review your MAIL SERVER configuration carefully, and keep in mind that PHP runs as a restricted user: Apache: Module: httpd.conf User directive decides who PHP is. CGI: httpd.conf suExec and/or User directive decides who PHP is. IIS/PWS: I_usr_machine name is the user, unless you're smarter than me and you can figure out stupid MS interface to change it... Other web-servers: You're on your own, kid. You will find that this bug has absolutely nothing to do with PHP, and everything to do with your MAIL SERVER. That's probably why it got marked "Bogus" as a PHP bug report. -- WARNING richard@zend.com address is an endangered species -- Use ceo@l-i-e.com Wanna help me out? Like Music?
