If Sendmail is configured propoerly, then you should be able to call it
from the system prompt without having to worry about the path.
That is, regardless if sendmail is in /usr/bin/sendmail or
/usr/local/bin/sendmail, you should be able to run it as:
%sendmail -argument $var $var
Hence, your php script shouldn't have any problems calling it. Regardless
of where it is located.
Alternately, you could run Sendmail from php as:
!/sendmail_path/sendmail -argument $var $var
Lastly,
if you need to a path (in an argument or passed variable), try this
concept:
$attached_file = "/path/to/file/filename.txt";
!/path/to/sendmail -argument $var $var < $attached_file;
** Doublecheck the syntax...the concept should be the same.
See if that helps!
