Things to take note of and as follows:
- log-in as root
- make sure that sendmail service is running
- the default executable is found in /usr/sbin/sendmail
- add: the following lines at the configuration directives
- sendmail_path=/usr/sbin/sendmail
- where /usr/sbin/sendmail is the actual path to the sendmail executable and related .dso files
- you can check the log after execution, it's at /var/log/maillog
- sample code below:
- <?php
- $to = 'root@localhost';
- $sub = 'sample text message ' . date('d-m-y h:i:s');
- $body = 'this is a test, a sample page for display only';
- $rest = mail($to, $sub, $body);
- if ($rest == false) {
echo 'Error.....';
} else {
echo 'send mail Ok !!!';
}
