Apart from that, you're using the 'mail' (PHPs mail function) as the backend mailer in your PEAR script - try using smtp instead and pass the SMTP config data you normally use. Have a look at http://pear.php.net/manual/en/package.mail.mail.factory.php - the smtp part.

Well, from my experience with Ubuntu, looks like that it does not do that. Unless, I am doing it wrong?
