Also, if you specify it, make sure you > use quotes, like this: > > sendmail_path = "/usr/sbin/sendmail -t" I tried various setups : sendmail_path = /usr/sbin/sendmail -t phpinfo() reports /usr/sbin/sendmail -t sendmail_path = "/usr/sbin/sendmail -t" phpinfo() reports /usr/sbin/sendmail -t sendmail_path = phpinfo() reports no value [no sendmail_path line] phpinfo() reports /usr/sbin/sendmail -t But none of these actually sent a mail (and the following script always reported "mailok"). My mail.phtml script follows : <? if (mail("cahagn_o@epita.fr", "My Subject", "Line")) { echo mailok; } else { echo mailnotok; } phpinfo(); ?> This is PHP 4.0b2 running in module version with engine set to off and only set to on in the httpd.conf for <Directory [RootDirectory]>. (I also tried with engine on all the time) safe_mode is also off. This also seems to happen with PHP 3.0.12 running as CGI (via suEXEC). -- Olivier Cahagne snina@ambafrance.org olivier.cahagne@epita.fr Tel: (613) 593 7406 Ambassade de France au Canada Service Culturel 464, Wilbrod St. K1N 6M8, Ottawa, Ontario, Canada
