PHP Version: 4.3.3
New Comment:
When PHP is compiled with --enable-sigchild the return codes of
executed programs are lost. Once of those programs is sendmail, since
PHP cannot fetch the return code it assumes the program had failed.
Hence the always FALSE return value of mail(). Normally mail() returns
false only when communication between PHP & sendmail fails.

Without the --enable-sigchild configure option, it seems that mail()
alwayes return TRUE.
Even if the mail server returns an "unknown error" with a false email,
or an "No recipients specified" with a blank first field of mail().
Is that normal ? When mail() returns FALSE ?

Okay, try removing the --enable-sigchild configure option
and reconfigure/compile PHP. (don't forget to delete config.cache
before reconfiguring!)

the configure line is :
./configure --with-apxs=/opt/apache/bin/apxs --prefix=/opt/apache
--with-config-file-path=/opt/apache/conf --with-mysql --disable-debug
--enable-trans-sid --with-oci8=/opt/oracle/product/9201 --enable-dbase
--enable-safe-mode --disable-magic-quotes --enable-sigchild
--enable-ldap --with-zlib=/opt/sfwplus --enable-mbstring
--enable-mbregex --enable-zend-multibyte --enable-bcmath
--enable-calendar --enable-exif --with-jpeg-dir=/opt/sfwplus
--with-png-dir=/opt/sfwplus --with-tiff-dir=/opt/sfwplus --with-gd
--with-iconv --with-pgsql=/opt/postgres

What was the configure line you used to configure PHP?

Description:
------------
The mail() function always return FALSE.
Even if the mail is sent !
Test with the sun's sendmail and postfix 2.0.16.
The mail can go out with no problem.
The result get the same safe_mode or not.
apache 1.3.28 with php as a module
Reproduce code:
---------------
<?php
$ret = mail ("[EMAIL PROTECTED]",
"sujet " . date("l dS of F Y h:i:s A"),
"corps\nl2\nl3\n",
"From: [EMAIL PROTECTED]"
."Reply-To: [EMAIL PROTECTED]"
) ;
print "ret = $ret<hr>" ;
if ($ret) {
print 'OK<br>' ;
} else {
print 'KO<br>' ;
}
?>
Expected result:
----------------
if we can send mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED]
then OK and [EMAIL PROTECTED] receive the mail.
if any error to sent mail
then KO and no mail !
Actual result:
--------------
always KO
but the mail are been received !
