i think that's because you don't have smtp access in a chrooted
environment, but you can get around that with pearmail.
we installed pearmail and used a function like:
function pearmail($to,$from,$subject,$body)
{
require('Mail.php'); //Mail.php comes with pearmail
$recipients = $to;
$headers['From'] = $from;
$headers['To'] = $to;
$headers['Subject'] = $subject;
$params['host'] = 'localhost';
// Create the mail object using the Mail::factory method
$mail_object =& Mail::factory('smtp', $params);
$mail_object->send($recipients, $headers, $body);
}
then you use pearmail() instead of mail()
both pearmail and the mini_sendmail ideas are in section 4.6 of this
