Hi all,

MAC LION 10.7.4&  latest MAMP (non pro version)

I've tried various things - but php send mail not working in MAMP (non
pro version)

... mail ( string $to , string $subject , string $message [, string
$additional_headers [, string $additional_parameters ]] )

the same script works on a hosted server...

tried this but not working...

viewtopic.php?f=2&t=10722

seems like I need to add more data - somewhere in php.ini or the php
sendmail script.... like authentication info of mailhost and user /
pass and port etc....

maybe setting data here? --- [, string $additional_headers [, string
$additional_parameters ]] - i don't know how..


I also posted this at mamp forum but there does not seem much action there...

First off, make sure that sendmail is installed and functioning.

Make sure, if you happen to have install postfix as well, that it has replaced your sendmail.

Then, from the cli, as your apache/php user, try sending an email using sendmail.

# sendmail -v you@xxxxxxxxx
testing
.

...

Did it work?

More then likely your php/apache process does not know where sendmail is or does not have permission to use it.

Check in your php.ini file and see what is set as the sendmail_path

Mine is set like this:

; For Unix only. You may supply arguments as well (default: "sendmail -t -i").
;sendmail_path =

As a standard user on my linux box I get this

[jlucas@jim ~]$ which sendmail
/usr/bin/which: no sendmail in (...)

But as root, I get this
[root@jim ~]# which sendmail
/usr/sbin/sendmail

So, make sure your apache&php user can see and execute sendmail
