Hi methyl,
Looks like AIX:
lip:/home/lc $ uname -a
AIX lip 1 6 00CF4E2A4C00
lip:/home/lc $ oslevel
6.1.0.0
lip:/home/lc $
I'm very new to AIX, I'm more of a Solaris and Linux person. I never used the 'mail' and 'mailx' programs much. On this system they have the same man page!
Yours,
Clovis

LEARN ABOUT PHP
mb_send_mail
MB_SEND_MAIL(3) 1 MB_SEND_MAIL(3)
mb_send_mail - Send encoded mail
SYNOPSIS
bool mb_send_mail NULL NULL (string $to, string $subject, string $message, [string $additional_headers], [string $additional_parame-
ter])
DESCRIPTION
Sends email. Headers and messages are converted and encoded according to the mb_language(3) setting. It's a wrapper function for mail(3),
so see also mail(3) for details.
PARAMETERS
o $to
- The mail addresses being sent to. Multiple recipients may be specified by putting a comma between each address in $to. This
parameter is not automatically encoded.
o $subject
- The subject of the mail.
o $message
- The message of the mail.
o $additional_headers (optional)
- String to be inserted at the end of the email header. This is typically used to add extra headers (From, Cc, and Bcc). Multiple
extra headers should be separated with a CRLF (
).
Note
When sending mail, the mail must contain a From header. This can be set with the $additional_headers parameter, or a default
can be set in php.ini.
Failing to do this will result in an error message similar to Warning: mail(): "sendmail_from" not set in php.ini or custom
"From:" header missing. The From header sets also Return-Path under Windows.
Note
If messages are not received, try using a LF (
) only. Some Unix mail transfer agents (most notably qmail) replace LF by
CRLF automatically (which leads to doubling CR if CRLF is used). This should be a last resort, as it does not comply with RFC
2822.
o $additional_parameter
-$additional_parameter is a MTA command line parameter. It is useful when setting the correct Return-Path header when using send-
mail.
RETURN VALUES
Returns TRUE on success or FALSE on failure.
