PHP mail() (Sendmail) Problem :( Hey, I've got a sendmail problem on a dedicated server, shall I post the configs or what do you suggest? Problem is, that all coming in via smtp is sent through fine, but messages I try to send via PHP mail() are not going through, error in root is "deferred: connection refused by [127.0.0.0]"
I guess I just have a block of wood in front of my head, can somebody help to remove it PLEASE!

some more details, I really hope someone can help:
btw, telnet works:
and status of sendmail seems to be fine too:
one thing I found (I just used several test commands and this is one result - there is no 127.0.0.1 there, :
like said, SMTP & POP are wonderful working, just this PHP mail() isn't, always the same error
maybe this helps you locating the problem thanks my friends!
file "access" localhost.localdomain RELAY localhost RELAY 127.0.0.1 RELAY myPOPIP RELAY (dont want to write it here, there is my provider IP, POP is working as well as SMTP...)
btw, telnet works:
telnet 127.0.0.1 25 Trying 127.0.0.1... Connected to 127.0.0.1. Escape character is '^]'. 220 rummels.de ESMTP Sendmail 8.13.4/8.13.4/Debian-3sarge1; Fri, 22 Dec 2006 21:53:12 +0100; (No UCE/UBE) logging access from: localhost(OK)-localhost [127.0.0.1]
and status of sendmail seems to be fine too:
# /etc/init.d/sendmail status MSP: is run via cron (20m) MTA: 8640 /usr/sbin/sendmail-mta -Am -L sm-mta -bd -q10m UID PID PPID C STIME TTY TIME CMD root 8640 1 0 22:32 ? 00:00:00 sendmail: MTA: accepting connections QUE: Same as MTA
one thing I found (I just used several test commands and this is one result - there is no 127.0.0.1 there, :
# netstat -an|grep 25 tcp 0 0 0.0.0.0:25 0.0.0.0:* LISTEN ....tcp 0 0 serverip:25 220.174.224.223:2246 VERBUNDEN etc.
like said, SMTP & POP are wonderful working, just this PHP mail() isn't, always the same error
maybe this helps you locating the problem

ok, did some more tests now as suggested by other people, maybe this helps:
so there is the error again, on the other side:
this last one reached the email address fine, so via telnet it's working, via smtp it's working, just via sendmail directly & php not, this is very strange to me
# sendmail -v -d8 -d38 validemail@validdomain.com dsfsdfs . validemail@validdomain.com... Connecting to [127.0.0.1] port 587 via relay... validemail@validdomain.com... Deferred: Connection refused by [127.0.0.1]
so there is the error again, on the other side:

I got no help from oyu here, but elsewhere, but probably you can help with the next problem that occured
when I send out mail via php to my gmail account, it always goes into spam, because of some header problems I think, I included SPF also, which is recognized, but doesn't change the situation to the better (exactly same email delivered via smtp from the same server works out to "land" in the inbox, it's freakin....):
the email via smtp (the one landing in the inbox at gmail has the following headers instead:
like said, the subject + content of the mails is the same, just the headers coming from root@localhost (for the script?) seems the problem maybe, or what do you experienced users think? How can I change this problem to the better? A change in the php.ini or sendmail config? The way it is "working" at present is, that confirmation emails for comments etc. are going into spam of the commenting party and that's not good
Thanks again and in advance as well for your appreciated help!
