Breve descrizione dei parametri di configurazione.

mail.add_x_header bool

Aggiunge X-PHP-Originating-Script che include l'UID dello script seguito dal nome del file.

mail.log string

Im percorso verso un file di log che registra tutte le chiamate a mail(). Le voci del log includono il percorso completo dello script, il numero di linea, Rl'indirizzo To e le intestazioni.

mail.force_extra_parameters string

Forza l'aggiunta dei parametri specificati da passare come parametri extra al binario sendmail. Questi parametri sostituiranno sempre il valore del quinto parametro di mail(), anche in modalità sicura.

SMTP string

Usato solo con Windows: Nome DNS o indirizzo IP del server SMTP che PHP deve usare per spedire posta elettronica con la funzione mail().

smtp_port int

Usato solo con Windows: Numero della porta del server specificato da SMTP al quale connettersi quando si inviano email usando mail(); il valore predefinito è 25.

sendmail_from string

Quale indirizzo email "From:" deve essere utilizzato nelle mail inviate direttamente tramite SMTP (solo Windows). Questa direttiva imposta anche l'intestazione "Return-Path:".

sendmail_path string

Dove trovare il programma sendmail, solitamente /usr/sbin/sendmail oppure /usr/lib/sendmail. configure cerca di trovare il file e lo imposta di default, ma se non riesce a localizzarlo, lo si può impostare qui.

I sistemi che non usano sendmail devono impostare questa direttiva al wrapper che i rispettivi sistemi di posta offrono, se esistenti. Per esempio, gli utenti di » Qmail possono normalmente impostarla a /var/qmail/bin/sendmail o /var/qmail/bin/qmail-inject.

qmail-inject non necessita di nessuna opzione al fine di processare correttamente la mail.

Questi parametri funzionano anche su Windows. Se si impostate smtp, smtp_port e sendmail_from saranno ignorate e verrà eseguito il comando indicato.

On Ubuntu 13.04, not sure of the other Distros.

If you simply uncomment the default:

sendmail_path = "sendmail -t -i"

Your mail() functions will all fail.  This is because, you should place the FULL PATH (i.e.  /usr/sbin/sendmail -t -i )

The documentation states PHP tries it's best to find the correct sendmail path, but it clearly failed for me.

So, always enter in the FULLPATH to sendmail or you may get unexpected failing results.

As a secondary note:  Those that just want to ENFORCE the -f parameter, you can do so in php.ini using:

mail.force_extra_parameters = -fdo_not_reply@domain.tld

You can leave the sendmail path commented out, it will still use the defaults  (under UNIX  -t -i options which if you look them up are very important to have set)....

But, now there is no way to change this, even with the 5th argument of the mail() function.  -f is important, because if NOT set, will be set to which ever user the PHP script is running under, and you may not want that.

Also, -f  sets the Return-Path:  header which is used as the Bounce address, if errors occur, so you can process them.  You you can not set Return-Path: in mail() headers for some reason... you could before.  Now you have to use the -f option.

The documentation should be made clear that sendmail does NOT default to -t -i when using just /usr/sbin/sendmail. You literally need to specify the options.

I know this might seem like a no-brainer but I wasted hours trying to get mail() to work only to discover that the sendmail program is NOT passed -t and -i by default as stipulated in the documentation.

If anyone gets this cryptic error message in the PHP error logs:
"sh: -t: command not found"
after upgrading from PHP 5.4, this may be the solution for you.

I upgraded PHP from 5.4 to 5.6 and all our mail() functionality suddenly broke, with no useful error logging.

If this is you, and you've been using ini_set() to set the "sendmail_path" then note that even though it's apparently not mentioned in the upgrade documentation -- or anywhere else I could find on php.net (or a dozen forums) -- you'll now need to go set the sendmail_path in your php.ini file; it is now ignored if you use ini_set() to specify a path to the sendmail binary on the fly.

So, just specify "sendmail_path" in php.ini instead.  That's all there is to it -- that fixed all the mail() functionality for us. 

Hope this little note saves someone else as much time as I spent troubleshooting and researching.  Cheers!

It is worth reiterating that, as stated above, sendmail_path also works for Windows, overriding other Windows SMTP settings.

The comment in php.ini, “For Unix only”, does not make that clear.

This makes it relatively easy to substitute a fake sendmail program or even a shell script/batch file to save mail to a text file.

I use this technique when teaching or testing in PHP.

For linux you can over-ride the default "From" for the outgoing emails by including in php.ini this line:

sendmail_path = "/usr/sbin/sendmail -t -i -f fromMe@blah.com"

The path should work for most linux installations.

setting return path:

Return-path header does not work because it is not part of smtp.

on *nix -f may be set on the mail command
alternatively
some MTAs accept mbox-style "From " header on the first header line
note: no colon after "From" , must be the first header line
or  you may be able to re-configure you MTA to interpret return-path headers

-f is the most reliable method but it may mean that you can't set any other command-line option due to shell escaping problems.

also note that email formatting requirements differ between windows and everything else. sendmail expects only \n line-endings

On Darwin OS such as OSX (current one: 10.8.3) you need to add a specific command and option to the sendmail_path constant if you have downloaded and installed a mamp with a stack.

Indeed you can see the required libraries for PHP, Apache, MySQL in "common/lib" folder. The problem is when you run an external command using these libraries, for example "sendmail". It could be a problem if it gets the stack libraries and not the system ones (different versions, etc).

The "env -i" command clean the Stack environment variables and run "sendmail" with the system libraries.

Hope this helps.

Ненавижу всякие денверы и ёбн серверы.

У меня голый апач на винде 10 и на нем 6 версий пхп от 5.6 до самой последней. :)
Все устанавливается и конфигиться за минуты. :)
Все версии пхп конфигяться отдельно и работают одновременно. На разных виртуальных хостах и портах.
Не надо ничего переключать и перезапускать.

У меня еще есть виртуальная машина(WmVare) c FreeBSD 13.
Там, например, Redis.
С пхп на винде все работает.

Так вот вопрос:
можно ли юзать sendmail с виртуальной машины на юниксе
в пхп на винде?
Было бы замечательно!!!

Зы в идеале хочу перенести апач с пхпями на виртуальную машину с юникс.
А загружать пхп скрипты с браузера под виндой.
Там уже установлен апач и последняя версия пхп.
И еще perl и Go. (Зачем не знаю. :) Было по приколу поковырять конфиги и понастраивать :) )

Но пока не разобрался как в юниксах подтянуть к голому апачу несколько версий пхп. :(
