[Typo3-dev] mail sending under cgi

[Jan-Erik Revsbech]

The actual mailsending is done via a call to the php function mail() which by default uses a direct call to sendmail (at least on Unix systemet, on Windows it uses an SMTP server).

Subject: [Typo3-dev] mail sending under cgi


I'm taking my first steps into looking into the php code of typo3, as my 
hosting provider has forced me!

The server is running php as a cgi, and when typo3 tries to send email, 
it collapses and dies, leaving the dead.letter sitting in my home 
directory. The dead.letter is the email as it is meant to be sent, so I 
think that something is going on with the server that is crashing the 
application.

I want to change typo3 so that instead of using the sendmail on the 
server it is on, it uses smtp to relay it through another server, which 
I control.

I'm looking inside class.t3lib_htmlmail.php which looks like the right 
class, but can anyone give me a clue as to where the email is passed to 
sendmail, so I can catch it and pop it out instead?

Thanks.
