php.ini configuration

[alesisdrummer]

I'm using PHPBB, and it's throwing a random error messages, and i searched the problem..and in another forum it says that in php.ini, sendmail_path = /usr/sbin/sendmail is missing the "-t -i" values. i was wondering if anybody knows what -t -i does before i add it in and possibly jeopardize something important. Thanks a lot.

p.s. this is a reference of the forum topic that i read to come to this conclusion.

According to the sendmail man page, the -i option means,

When reading a message from standard input, don´t treat a line with only a . character as the end of input.

and the the -t option means,

Extract recipients from message headers. These are added to any recipients specified on the command line.

The -t option is probably the more important one, since without it, sendmail will not pay attention to the recipients list in the message header.
