webmaster, The IRC might help developers but you pages would help us faster help if a pros and cons section plus a known issues(cons) section for critical resource methods like mail() was part of php.net function reference pages.
Specific information I am looking for, as an example: - can mail() frequently block an application due to conditions or loading; and would forking away the mail() be a proposed solution over said scene. - if mail() fails more often then other solutions then the known problem scenes are more or less of a concern for me only when I am aware of what those problem scenes are? (comments bashing mail() on internet led me to ask this... but maybe those comments are unfounded because problems with mail() beyond configuration were not pinpointed Jesse
