Lucas... Tried your suggestion... "cat q.txt | mail -f bedouglas@earthlink.net" produced.. -->bedouglas@earthlink.net: No such file or directory..... However, as I stated, I'm fairly sure that the Sendmail app is working given that I was able to send an email from the command line when i did a telnet localhost 25.... I'm just not certain as to how to do it through PHP.... thanks bruce bedouglas@earthlink.net -----Original Message----- From: psyche-list-admin@redhat.com [mailto:psyche-list-admin@redhat.com]On Behalf Of Lucas Albers Sent: Friday, January 24, 2003 4:12 PM To: psyche-list@redhat.com Subject: RE: php/sendmail/apache/linux...
