PHP Mail will not send on sites run by ispconfig3

[happz]

I am not worried so much about the email server working at this point for my ispconf3 installation and I will say that I am new to version 3.

With ispconfg2, I started off long ago learning how to make email work from within the configuration but my php sites always sent email.

With ispConfg3, now my websites won't even send emails with the built in php mail function.

Any ideas?

Never seen that in a ispconfig 3 setup yet. Do you get any errors in the mail.log? Have you chnaged any settings in the php.ini file?

I do have problems in the mail.log but I am trying to find a good company to use as a relay smtp server but I thought that PHP mail() worked out side of that. .

The php web application script give me an option to use smtp or mail(). It seems that mail() via php used to always work.

So I'll need to get my postfix working first?

but I thought that PHP mail() worked out side of that. .

The php mail function invokes the sendmail wrapper which is part of postfix to send emails. So if you have problems with your postfix relay setup, then you will have to fix that to get php mail to work correctly.
