Sorry, but your problem does not imply a bug in PHP itself. For a
list of more appropriate places to ask for help using PHP, please
visit http://www.php.net/support.php as this bug system is not the
appropriate forum for asking support questions. Due to the volume
of reports we can not explain in detail here why your report is not
a bug. The support channels will be able to provide an explanation
for you.
Thank you for your interest in PHP.

Hi,
I am also having the same problem with this. I am using Mac OS X, and it
doesn't seem to be sending.
Script:
<?php
if(!mail($_POST['email'],"blabla","$text_body")){
echo("Unable to send verification email.");
}else{
echo("Sent verification email.");
}
?>
Mail seems to always return true.
