I'm needing to debug a mailer script on my site as it has recently started to throw up several time out errors. When I put in some timing code and observed the results, I found that a call to the mail() function was taking 17 seconds to execute, which does not seem right under any definition of right, no matter how creative it may be. My specific question for the PHP-Windows list is:
Is there any particular substantial overhead for mail? I did not expect 17 seconds of overhead, seems like a little bit much for an email that is less than 1 k in size, being sent through the localhost. My setup is as follows: Win 2k Prof Apache 1.3.23 PHP 4.2.2 Mail Server: Mail Enable 1.613 PHP INI Snipet: [mail function] ; For Win32 only. SMTP = localhost ; for Win32 only ; For Win32 only. sendmail_from = [EMAIL PROTECTED] ; for Win32 only thanks, Jeff -- PHP Windows Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php
