the only advantage of using the sendmail binary on unix is that you usualy can rely on it being already configured besides that *all* the problems with mail() (one process per mail unless you bcc: identical copies, From: setting, no influence on SMTP envelope, ...) simply do not exist with SMTP based solutions (unless they are so badly coded as the win32 mail() implementation has been in the past ...) -- Six Offene Systeme GmbH http://www.six.de/ i.A.
