I am having a problem getting mail() to send any emails from the remote server.
Mamp is fine.
Any ideas. Exact same code

I have this as my path to sendmail:
/usr/sbin/sendmail -t -i
From my phpini.
Does that mean anything to you?
Not sure what is the problem.
Still baffled.
Just added a regular mail() function to my page with no headers and it went through. Something to do with the From and headers I think in the CI class???

Solved.
The remote server needs the email address to exist before it will send from it.
