Hey everyone!
Got a little problem...with CentOS / BQ / PHP 4.3.9 with the mail() function
I'm able to send mail using postfix directly from the command line, however when I try using the mail function of php no mail is being sent. This simple script works on all my older Cobalt Boxs.
<? if($action=="send") { $to = 'me@domain.dot'; $subject = 'the subject'; $message = 'hello'; $headers = 'From: me@domain.dot' . "\r\n" . 'Reply-To: me@domain.dot' . "\r\n" . 'X-Mailer: PHP/' . phpversion();
mail($to, $subject, $message, $headers); ?>
the queue looks like this.... Jun 14 11:47:45 bq0 sendmail[19390]: j5EFljEU019390: from=<>, size=1146, class=0, nrcpts=0, proto=ESMTP, daemon=MTA, relay=localhost [127.0.0.1] Jun 14 11:47:45 bq0 sendmail[19389]: j5EFljk1019389: j5EFljk2019389: return to sender: User unknown Jun 14 11:47:45 bq0 sendmail[19390]: j5EFljEW019390: from=<>, size=3858, class=0, nrcpts=1, msgid=200506141547.j5EFljk2019389@bq.ontarioservers.com, proto=ESMTP, daemon=MTA, relay=localhost [127.0.0.1] Jun 14 11:47:45 bq0 sendmail[19389]: j5EFljk2019389: to=postmaster, delay=00:00:00, xdelay=00:00:00, mailer=relay, pri=32170, relay=[127.0.0.1] [127.0.0.1], dsn=2.0.0, stat=Sent (j5EFljEW019390 Message accepted for delivery) Jun 14 11:47:45 bq0 sendmail[19391]: j5EFljEW019390: to=admin, delay=00:00:00, xdelay=00:00:00, mailer=local, pri=34070, dsn=2.0.0, stat=Sent

hmm, to me it looks like you did successfully send mail. it looks like the mail was sent to postmaster. mebbe check your aliases file to see who gets postmaster email.
try the following - using php pear and an smtp connection to localhost instead of trying to exec postfix and running amok of selinux.
$recipients = "maze@tcs.ii.uj.edu.pl";
$headers["From"] = "PHP at TCS php@tcs.ii.uj.edu.pl"; $headers["To"] = "Maciej Żenczykowski maze@tcs.ii.uj.edu.pl"; $headers["Subject"] = "PHP Test message subject.";
$body = "This is the test message text.";
//$params["host"] = "localhost"; //$params["port"] = "25"; //$params["auth"] = false; //$params["username"] = "user"; //$params["password"] = "password";
include("Mail.php"); // this is coming from /usr/share/pear // so make sure php is allowed to include files from // there if it's in safe mode // /etc/php.ini: // safe_mode_include_dir = /usr/share/pear/ // include_path = ".:/php/includes:/usr/share/pear"
$mail_object =& Mail::factory("smtp", $params); $mail_object->send($recipients, $headers, $body);

Not Postfix, the log below clearly shows Sendmail activity.
however when I try using the mail function of php no mail is being sent. This simple script works on all my older Cobalt Boxs.
<? if($action=="send") { $to = 'me@domain.dot'; $subject = 'the subject'; $message = 'hello'; $headers = 'From: me@domain.dot' . "\r\n" . 'Reply-To: me@domain.dot' . "\r\n" . 'X-Mailer: PHP/' . phpversion(); mail($to, $subject, $message, $headers); ?>

The first log entry is missing, queue ID j5EFljEU019390.

The reason; more to be seen in the non delivery notification ...

Better do as Maciej showed you and use Pear. It preserves you from several headaches using the mail() function directly. Also get clear which MTA you are really wanting to run; actually Sendmail seems to not be configured properly. And finally, using Apache to speak to the MTA directly will not work when SELinux is enabled.

Thanks for the posts guys ;)
I found out Sendmail >8.12 has been re-modeled to tighten msp-queue rules.
Thus, internal processes send mails will go to msp-queue 1st. in /etc/mail/virtusrtable I removed @your-box-fqdn error:nouser No such user here
and every thing works now with out changing the mail() function

And now your postmaster gathers masses of spam, directed to not existing local users ;/
