Sendmail

Hi:

 

I am using the script attached to process simple forms, it is on a Yahoo server.

 

Yahoo's FAQ'S say:

 

I need to indicate the path to the Yahoo! mail program, Sendmail. The path to Sendmail is /usr/sbin/sendmail.

 

I am not sure where in the script to insert that path, any suggestions?

 

TYIA,

 

Joe

I think you need to contact tech support at Yahoo. You shouldn't have to identify the sendmail path. The sendmail path is something that the admin changes. I did a website for a friend that is on yahoo hosting, and we didn't have to do that. I do believe we had to specify the -f option though.

This is from their help PHP files:

 

Before you can send email with Perl or PHP, you must complete the PHP/Perl Mail Setup process. To begin setting up PHP/Perl mail, click the "PHP/Perl Mail" link on the Create & Update or Index tabs of your Web Hosting Control Panel. The mail setup process allows you to customize the email address that users will see when you send them a message (for example, "From: [email protected]").

 

You will also need to indicate the path to the Yahoo! mail program, Sendmail. The path to Sendmail is /usr/sbin/sendmail.

It sounds like this is all stuff done in the hosting control panel, and that it has nothing to do with the email script itself. Log in to your hosting control panel and check it out. If you need help, call the host. Yahoo is expensive as far as hosting is concerned. They owe you some phone support as far as I'm concerned.
