Did you get a bounce? Perhaps to the root account on your local
machine? Some domains do reverse DNS lookup and if sendmail is not
configured properly the receiving domain might kick the email back if it
doesn't recognize where the email claims to be coming from.

Subject: RE: [PHP] can mail() function send emails to any email account?
[snip]
Hello.. it's me again.
Trying to use mail() function to send emails to hotmail accounts. It
seems that it's not working.
Tried the same function on my own email account, it worked.
Tried on some other, it doesn't.
What determines if the mail() function works?
[/snip]
Whether or not it is installed properly. If it is it will send e-mails
to any given e-mail address.
Perhaps the hotmail account is set up to deflect unknown users as spam?
