=yes I must admit I couldn't see any particular difference. If it helps I'll send the whole .ini file to your private address (but you'd still have to edit it). Have you tried tracking the error back through the Apache documentation? There's an article by Richard Heyes (who sometimes appears here) about using his email classes to email-enable PHP. I used a lot of his advice/setups to get started.
