> My understanding is exactly that... php.ini needs the sendmail path so that the mail() function can execute sendmail when it's needed. You can also set up php to use a TCP connection to send mail (SMTP directive)... that is, connect to port 25 and issue the necessary commands to send an email, if the daemon is running. Arguments necesary to run sendmail from within php would be site specific. cheers Michael -- SLUG - Sydney Linux User's Group - http://slug.org.au/ More Info: http://lists.slug.org.au/listinfo/slug
