Here's what's in my PHP.INI for e-mail:
sendmail_path = "/usr/sbin/sendmail -t -i"
I confirmed that the path is correct. The alternate e-mail code I posted
previously DOES work, but this simple mail command always causes a "data
format error" in Sendmail:
mail('[EMAIL PROTECTED]', 'Subject', 'Body text');
I've also tried Manuel Lemos' MIME, SMTP, and MAIL classes but they don't
work for me either. The only thing that works in PHP for sending e-mail is
by opening Sendmail as a separate process using popen() within PHP, then
writing directly to it using fputs.
