Ive found some php installs are configured with a different path to
sendmail than where sendmail is  (as in /usr/lib/sendmail instead of
/usr/bin/sendmail) - symlink the one to the other and it will work.

If you want to see where its looking for sendmail - go to the directory
the apache daemon is in and type

strings httpd|grep sendmail
