Hi,

Include the following line in the begining of apache startup script (and after 
#/bin/sh, of course), than restart apache:

export MAIL_ROOT=/var/MailRoot

Perhaps you will also have to suid root sendmail binary that comes with XMail.

Another "perhaps" now for xmail developers, sendmail binary could defaults 
to /var/MailRoot when that environment variable is not defined.

We have clients that use the mail() command, but I would not recommend it.
You should use the PHPMailer class instead of the native mail() command.
Many of the popular PHP applications already do this.

Subject: [xmail] Using XMail with php


Hello Folks-

I'm running XMail and Apache2 on a SuSE 9.2 box. Both servers have been up
and 
running normally for months. I'm creating a web page that uses the php
mail() 
function to send the data from a form. The php scripts work as expected 
except for the mail() function which fails.

My question:
If I run XMail in debug mode will I see an entry for any attempt to access
the 
sendmail module, or will I only see an error if the connection is successful

but the data is formatted wrong?

I would expect that any attempt to connect would be displayed, but for some 
reason I'm not seeing anything at all. I've even tried connecting directly 
using:

$fd = popen("/usr/sbin/sendmail","w");
fputs($fd, ..

Nothing. Yet I can log on and send mail from the command line using mail 
without problems. Any tips on getting the php mail() function to work with 
XMail? I'm running low on ideas here.
