sending mail using function mail() only works when I'm connected to
mysql.

<?
mail($to, $subject, "before mysql_connect()", "From: $from");
mysql_connect("localhost", $username, $password);
mail($to, $subject, "after mysql_connect()", "From: $from");
?>

The above code results in a single e-mail containing "after
mysql_connect()".

I don't have a clue of what could be wrong or where to start looking.
I've upgraded the OS, but it didn't help.

Can someone help me figure out what might be wrong?

My setup:
FreeBSD 6.1-RELEASE-p2
Apache/1.3.35
4.1.18-log
PHP 4.4.2

'./configure' '--with-apache=../apache_1.3.35' '--with-openssl'
'--with-gd' '--with-mysql' '--enable-trans-sid' '--enable-track-vars'
'--with-jpeg-dir=/usr' '--with-png-dir=/usr' '--with-zlib=/usr'
'--enable-mbstring' '--enable-ftp' '--enable-exif'
'--with-freetype-dir=/usr/local' '--with-pspell=/usr/local'

php ini
sendmail_path /usr/sbin/sendmail -t -i
SMTP localhost
smtp_port 25
