apache php and sendmail
Hi,
At home I’ve been making a webpage. The contact page should accept input from the user, then mail it to me. I am trying this out on my laptop before I put it on a host.
I have apache2 running on my laptop, configured to use php. Both work fine, I can tell php is working by using a webpage with
<?php
phpinfo(); I get lots and lots of info. Among the data is: sendmail_path /usr/sbin/sendmail -t -i , which is where my sendmail is, and the value in php.ini.
pedro@pedro-bedro:~$ whereis sendmail
sendmail: /usr/sbin/sendmail /usr/lib/sendmail /usr/share/man/man1/sendmail.1.gz
pedro@pedro-bedro:~$
I have a script, send_mail.php The part that sends the info is:
mail( “$webmaster_email”, “Feedback Form Results”,
$comments, “From: $email_address” );
header( “Location: $thankyou_page” );
}
Unfortunately, I never receive any mail. Yesterday morning I tried again, here is /var/log/mail
status=bounced (gmail.com)

Does anyone have any idea why the mail is not sent?
