[FC3] Sending Mail In a PHP script

[Francis Stevens]

This is caused by SELinux which is active of FC3 by default. There have 
been some recent threads on this subject and I don't actually recall the 
solution - apart from the fact it involves telling SELinux that httpd 
can access sendmail.  Try searching the archives it was covered only a 
few weeks ago....
