Nothing, really. I believe PHP's mail() actually calls sendmail directly 
(or whatever you have configured in php.ini).

It can also use procmail, or any other SMTP-capable application you have
installed.  It is called from the php.ini file.

 Not a whole lot. The PHP mail function is just a nice fuzzy function
 wrapper to popen(sendmail).
