By default mssql support aren't built into the fedora/redhat php, while "mail"
support should be there by default, requires you have a sendmail compatible
MTA installed.

Did you do that with an RPM or how did you add it?

man rpm
you will find how the rpm command works and find that
rpm -ql php
and you get all the files in the php package listed with full paths.

The dll is for microsofts operating system, so it won't work, you need a .so
file if your php is built as shared, otherwise you need to recompile the whole
php.
For recompile, install the php srpm (ends with .src.rpm) and then edit your
php.spec file (located in /usr/src/redhat/SPECS) and add the configuration
options for mssql, where after you run:
rpmbuild -ba /usr/src/redhat/SPECS/php.spec
wait and then install the new RPMs you find in /usr/src/redhat/RPMS/i386
