The answer to your issue is here: http://forums.gentoo.org/viewtopic.php?t=121455 Now I got rid of that error...and qmail isnt sending again. Im too young for grey hair. It sent 3 messages and inexplicably quit. The qmail-send logs showed the 3 being sent, and registers the other new messages but never sends them. ps -e shows qmail-smtpd isn't running, but when I try to run it I get tcpserver: fatal: unable to bind: address already used. Port 25 is in use but by what I don't know....*cry* at least I know my PHP script works... > > Shawn > > -----Original Message----- > From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] > Behalf Of Nick W > Sent: Wednesday, April 28, 2004 3:18 PM > To: CLUG General > Subject: Re: [clug-talk] Sendmail & PHP > > > Update...its working, and Im getting flooded with my test mails now.
