I don't think that is it anymore. I have a new discovery. Upon running the
actually PHP script from the console, the code works! But only when I am
logged in as root. When logging is as anyone else, the mail() function
fails with a Permission Denied on /usr/sbin/sendmail
So, it would appear that sendmail is not configured to allow others to use
it? Is there a quick easy way to fix this?
Thanks!
Ryan

RPM's tend to hose installations. May I suggest:
rpm -qa | grep php
rpm -e [insert php rpm name here]
rpm -e [apache rpm]
get the source for apache 1.3.20 (http://www.apache.org)
get the source for php and compile per installation docs on php
website
You will enjoy the results alot more.

Well, just using Red Hat 7.1 and sendmail with PHP 4.0.5. Sendmail was
installed default in the RH installation, and then I installed the latest
PHP RPM afterwards.
Oh well.

Are you trying to use a MTA besides Sendmail?
Some info would be helpful, such as:
OS
MTA (Sendmail Qmail, etc)
PHP version
If you installed PHP without sendmail installed, mail() will not work.
That doesn't mean that you can't use a different MTA.
When I switched to Qmail on a new server, a had a problem with mail()
not working.
I reinstalled OS (redhat 7.1) with sendmail, installed PHP (4.05),
installed QMAIL per docs concerning replacing sendmail, changed
php.ini file to reflect sendmail_path = /var/qmail/bin/qmail-inject.

Darn, still didn't work.
Anyone else have a suggestion? Or a way to view an error message of some
kind?

I tried that in this format:
if ( mail("[EMAIL PROTECTED]", "Quote Request", $message, "From:
[EMAIL PROTECTED]\nX-Mailer: PHP/" . phpversion()) ) {
echo "Email sent!";
} else {
echo "Email NOT sent!";
}
and still get the Email NOT sent and no emails go anywhere. Is there
another solution? How about a way to get an error message of some kind?

Subject: [PHP] mail function fails
I am having a problem with the PHP mail() function. Here is the code:
if (mail ("[EMAIL PROTECTED]", "Quote Request", $message)) {
echo "Email sent!";
} else {
echo "Email NOT sent!";
}
Everytime, I receive the Email NOT sent message and the email isn't sent.
However, from the console on the same machine, I can run the mail command:
mail [EMAIL PROTECTED] and send an email just fine.
Any ideas as to what could be wrong?
I am using the latest PHP version and am running Red Hat Linux 7.1
