To get you started - http://us.php.net/manual/en/ref.mail.php

For the Mail functions to be available, PHP must have access to the
sendmail binary on your system during compile time. If you use another
mail program, such as qmail or postfix, be sure to use the appropriate
sendmail wrappers that come with them. PHP will first look for
sendmail in your PATH, and then in the following: /usr/bin:/usr/sbin:/
usr/etc:/etc:/usr/ucblib:/usr/lib. It's highly recommended to have
sendmail available from your PATH. Also, the user that compiled PHP
must have permission to access the sendmail binary.

If you want to use a package -http://pear.php.net/package/Mail and/
or http://pear.php.net/package/Mail_Mime

PEAR's Mail package defines an interface for implementing mailers
under the PEAR hierarchy. It also provides supporting functions useful
to multiple mailer backends. Currently supported backends include:
PHP's native mail() function, sendmail, and SMTP. This package also
provides a RFC822 email address list validation utility class.

Mail_Mime provides classes to deal with the creation and manipulation
of mime messages.
It allows people to create Email messages consisting of:
* Text Parts
* HTML Parts
* Inline HTML Images
* Attachments
* Attached messages

Starting with version 1.4.0, it also allows non US-ASCII chars in
filenames, subjects, recipients, etc.

ahhh!

who is the *least* likely to RTFM? who is in the most need of RTFM?

wheat from chaff...wheat from chaff. if the op's of that genre can't answer
both of those questions correctly and then formulate a sound plan of action
from the 'discovery', the need to play with lego's or something...not php.

cheers.

ain't that the truth! i started fishing again back in may and have been at
least twice a week since. i have found fishing for buffalo the closest i'll
get to the feeling of deep sea fishing...in a lake. the smallest i've caught
was 22lb. i catch at least one per trip. each takes about 15 minutes to
bring in. if i get 3 in one sitting, i leave. my arms hurt so much that i
just don't want to get another on.

;^)

Ah, how I wish. I used to go lake fishing at least a couple of times a
week and to the beach at least once a month (I was in NC at the time).

Then I got married... Since then the only time since then I've been
fishing was for Marlins at Cabo San Lucas and one business trip out on
the Chesapeake Bay.

That was 11.5 years ago... :-(

it had been about 20 years for me. i had a friend who was having a rough
time and wanted to go fishing to clear his mind and think of happier things.
i'm glad he invited me! i grew up fishing but, after years of it, only
landed one 10 lb catfish, a 1 lb crappie, and a 3 lb large mouth
bass...crappy stats! i caught fish all the time of each kind...those were my
records though. i'm way into buffalo and carp. they are babies in the summer
and monsters by the fall...and man, they fight like their lives depended on
it. we fish off of a pier and use bungie chord to anchor the rods to the
metal benches...other wise, your rod goes missing in the blink of an eye.

you ought to try it again. take your wife too.

Sounds like fun. I actually prefer blues myself. Some people don't
like them, but those don't know how to clean them. Properly cleaned
they're delicious. Not properly cleaned and they are quite oily.

I never have caught anything really big in lakes - largest was probably
about a 3-4 lb. northern or walleye up in Minnesota many years ago. I
haven't caught any big lake fish for a very long time. Have pulled some
big ones out of the surf, however. And around Chesapeake Bay we can get
some good sized rockfish.

And my favorite was a 130 lb marlin a few years ago. It's hanging on my
office wall :-)

As for the wife - she can take it for a while, but doesn't have the
patience to sit there all day waiting for a bite.

Sorry, Steve's got you here. He has a lot more wisdom than you do.

For instance, in your very first post -

"For the Mail functions to be available, PHP must have access to the
sendmail binary on your system during compile time. "

Complete and utter nonsense. If that were the case, you couldn't
compile PHP on one system and run it on another with a potentially
different MTA. But that works fine. All PHP needs is the binary
available at runtime.

And while the Pear package your recommend is good, it does nothing to
help a new PHP programmer, and in fact requires that he learn MORE than
if he just used the mail() function.

Steve's post was much more informative. A new programmer will benefit
more from a good example than a "rtfm".

man, that had to be an awesome feeling! and what a great area you're in.
we're kind of limited in what we have around to catch. i hate going to the
gulf to shore fish...damn jellies and sting rays! deep sea is fun, but it's
kind of pricey unless you go for a few days - enter the wife and kids. ;^)

make sure you get out some time for a sanity break...then report back what

Yea, it was great. Didn't get it up here, though - we were vacationing
in Cabo San Lucas :-). And right after that, my wife pulled in a 125
lb. marlin. And she did it all by herself.

And yes, deep sea is pricey, so I don't do it much, either. But both
pier and surf fishing was generally pretty good along the Outer Banks of NC.

The Chesapeake has a lot of little jellyfish up around Baltimore, but by
the time you get down to Annapolis and below there aren't many there at
all. But there also aren't any fishing piers.

I'm sure the world would like to partake of such entertainment.
