For a bit more explanation:
Go to <a href='http://www.polarhome.com:793/phpinfo/' target='_blank'>the Redhat phpinfo() page</a> and look for the line labeled:

disable_functions

Understand mail() was heavily abused therefore it is disabled.

Oh dear...mail(); is disabled .. this is a bad news for developers but you guys wont think about a solution for this ?

Well we've *only* been trying to do this for the last.. erm.. 4 years or so?

there's just no way to selectivly allow safemode/mail/sockets on a per-user basis.
not one that i would trust, anyway.

`sides, shell users get CGI, which is 100% functional without any limits

time to learn some cgi eh
