I am running LAMP on my Ubuntu 10.04 Desktop linux and using it as a development machine.
I need to send emails from my php pages, but it seems that the sendmail php command needs sendmail installed on the laptop.
I understand I can install sendmail by sudo aptitude install sendmail
, but don't know how to configure it as after installing it and restarting apache2, sendmail from php still does not work and returns no errors at all.
I am assuming sendmail needs to be configured after installing it, before it can be used in php.
Therefore, my question is, how do I install and configure sendmail on ubuntu 10.04 so I can use sendmail via cli at least.
