A big HELLO to php-install,
I have a problem with the mail command - it doesn't work!
I'm using a simple script to test this....
<?php
$ret = mail("[EMAIL PROTECTED]", "Join", "message1");
print $ret;
?>
When this is run (http://www.subhc.org.uk/mailto.php) it repots a return code of
1 (success) but no mail is ever received.
Part of the problem is that I do not have control over the server as I only rent
a domain name on the server. The support people have said that as they don't use
this commend then they are unable (unwilling?) to fix it.
I've checked as much as I can - the PHP setupis pointing to the sendmail program
and it is in the expected place (/usr/sbin/sendmail).
If anyone can help point me in the right direction to try and solve this I'd be
grateful - php info for the site can be found at
http://www.subhc.org.uk/phpinfo.php

Thanks,

One of the reasons I chose e-Smith because it runs native PHP and
MySQL servers, and I have a specific PHP application I want to run on
it. However, I have fallen at the first hurdle by trying to learn how
to drive e-Smith, PHP and MySQL all at the same time. I need the
following information to set up PHPAuction v.2 and I wondered if
anyone has set up PHPAuction on e-smith or could help steer my in the
right direction...
¦ Step 1

¦ Please select : [Create new database Use existing database]
¦ Database host : [ ]
¦ Database name : [ ]
¦ Database username : [ ]
¦ Database password : [ ]
¦ Admin E-Mail : [[EMAIL PROTECTED] ]
¦ Site name : [ ]
¦ Site URL : [http://www.privacyx.co.uk/]
There is precious little information I can be sure I understand either
in the manual or the text files on this, so any help or guidance would
be much appreciated.
JR.
