Hey guys, I'm stumped.

I just installed apache and PHP on a debian box but I think I'm missing something. I can't seem to get the mail() function to work. I have checked that sendmail works (it does) and that my php.ini file has the correct sendmail path, and it does. I think I might be missing the mail portion of PHP. (php-mail-mime)

Is this needed? If so, how can I get it installed on a debian box?

I appologize for the newbie questions, but if you need more information, please let me know.

Also if there is a way to get the mail function error codes can you fill me in on that as well? (for example mysql_error() for mySQL)

I did check out this thread:
[webmasterworld.com...]
but I have to use the mail() function, as it is built into the forum software what I'm trying to get running.

Thanks so much!

Ok, It seems to be working properly now. Though I'm not sure why. I simply commented out the php module load line, restarted apache, then put the line back and restarted one more time.

I'm not sure why that worked, but it does. So if anyone else has this issue, give that a shot.

Thanks!
