Hi Aho,
Thanks a lot for your reply, it helped!

I had tried both (using /usr/sbin/ssmtp and /usr/sbin/sendmail) with the
same results :(.
I just followed your advice and use the default by commenting out the entry
altogether and it worked :)! Thanx! By checking phpinfo(), I can see the
default value contains options "-t -i" which must be what make it work. I
feel kinda dumb right now :/.

OK, thanks for confirming this.

Thanks, I will keep that in mind.

Well, since ssmtp seems to work now, I will keep it a little longer. I don't
need a powerhouse mta on this machine, just a simple forwarder basically
and ssmtp seems to fit the bill quite well. I will probably try sendmail
later if my needs in email grow.
Thanks again for your help, I much appreciate it.
Cheers,
Tim.
