When I execute the following code, 

$ret_mail=mail($adresse_dest,$sujet,$message,$extra_header);

The variable $ret_mail contains always the NULL value, even if the mail is really send.

So the program cannot control any execution error or success.

The sendmail version is 8.9.3.

Configure command : ./configure --without-mysql --with-oracle=/oracle/ora817 --with-oci8=/oracle/ora817 --with-apache=/usr/local/apache_1.3.24 --enable-track-vars --enable-sigchild

sendmail_path = sendmail -t -i

Thanks for your help

Unable to reproduce this on FreeBSD 4.6, or OSX.  Possibly an AIX specific.  Anyone have access to an AIX box?

Yep, I do.

Couldn't reproduce with 4.2.0RC1/CLI, but will try current HEAD and STABLE.

Full self-contained short script:
<?php
ini_set('sendmail_path', '/usr/sbin/sendmail -t -i');
$adresse_dest = 'msopacua@idg.nl';
$sujet = 'test';
$message='testmessage';
$extra_header='From: aix43 <aix@php.net>';
$ret_mail=mail($adresse_dest,$sujet,$message,$extra_header);

print("***$ret_mail***\n");
?>

Please note that I use a full path. Does that help in your case?

Sorry - can't reproduce this, with 4.2.2, php HEAD or stable.

Could you run the test I posted?
 [2002-08-08 14:24 UTC] kalowsky@php.net 
Marking this as closed, because another AIX user has stated this works for them, and I cannot reproduce it on any local tests.  

If you can provide any further information which might lead to showing this to be a bug, please reopen this bug report. 

Thanks
