Cheza, This is almost certainly a sendmail problem. You don't say how your mail routing is supposed to work. Is, for instance, your sendmail meant to deliver the mail locally on the same machine? Does sendmail have to talk to another mail transfer agent to deliver the mail to another machine? It might be the case that your sendmail is not configured to: 1. Receive mail from the address you specify in php.ini/mail() 2. Listen on the correct ports (25) But I would expect to see an error displayed. You need to see whether the mail queue is filling up within sendmail. Quite possibly your sendmail queue is filling up but mails are being blocked by another server. Have you looked at the sendmail.mc or freebsd.mc file and reconstructed the sendmail.cf files using m4? Sendmail is a very complicated beast, but worth persevering with :-) All the best, Jon On Fri, April 21, 2006 11:05, Chezangla, Engineer, DrukNet wrote: > I'm using: > > freeBSD-5.x > PHP-5.x > Mysql-4.x > Apache-2.x > > I want to use php mail() to send mails using php script.
