How do I turn on Sendmail on Mac OS X Server 10.1 for out going only?

[Mac Write]

I have a site on a Mac OS X Server 10.1, and have PHP scripts that need to send mail via sendmail. This server I am on is only for Web, since there is a seperate Mac OS X Server for Mail only.

I went into the Server Admin app (remotely since actual server is thousands of miles away ), anyways. I turned on mail server, and set the host as local host. I turn on everything that said sendmail, and turned off everything that said SMTP.

Anyways I tried sending an e-mail from vbulletin mail list function to myself, and never recieved it, or got an error saying mail not sent.

So how do I turn on sendmail so that it is for sending out only from within the server (so php apps can send mail)?

Thanks

Don't you need SMTP for any outgoing mail?

Not from shell - or inside the server.

Pretty easy..

There was a clear discussion on it on some other forum....

try searching for sendmail... ( you will find it)
