Ed, thanks for taking a look at this:
[eprice@media eprice]$ less public_html/testmail.php
<html>
<head>
<title>a mail Test</title>
</head>
<body>
<?php
$return = mail('[EMAIL PROTECTED]', 'subject', 'message');
print "<p>Now, hopefully your message has been sent.";
print "The return value of mail() is " . (int)$return .
".</p>\n";
?>
</body>
</html>
The results I get are:
Now, hopefully your message has been sent.The return value of mail() is
0.
My path_to_sendmail is confirmed to be correct, and again, I have tested
sendmail -- it works fine from the command line. It's executable by all
users, so my Apache user shouldn't have a hard time executing it.
There's just no explanation! I've even pointed my path_to_sendmail to
an executable shell script that prints a confirmation message if it is
executed, and the mail() function has the exact same effect if I do this.
Gratefully,
Erik
