Webhosting PHP question

With Runbox webhosting, is the PHP mail() function disabled?

I ask because it doesn't seem to give an error message when I use this function, but it does not seem to send anything either.

Extra Info

In fact the PHP mail() function does do something ... any email sent using this function gets put in this directory on the Runbox webhosting server ...

/home/{user}/mail/new/

as a text file called something like xxx.xxx.bigdog.runbox.net,S=xxx.

Any ideas how to actually make the mail() function REALLY send the email?

Ticket raised

Ok I have raised a ticket.

I have this php script working with another site ... on a different hosting provider. It would be good if it worked here too. We shall see.

I replied to your ticket. It looks like your account was set to always deliver email locally for the domain even if the MX record was for an external email server. I made some changes that should have corrected the delivery problem. Let us know if it didn't fix the problem.

Regards,
Rich
