I'm unable to send emails in php 7.3 using mail() - it returns true but sendmail doesn't work.

  • CentOS 8
  • Postfix and Sendmail: Installed and running
  • Mail sent with Sendmail: no errors (below) but no email - including the SPAM folder php.ini SMTP = mail.levaweb.com
  • AApanel: installed - sending emails from here works

I've seen these posts:

Test - SSH

echo "Subject: sendmail test" | sendmail -v myemail@gmail.com

  • `250 2.0.0 Ok: queued as 4CB6C40096 myemail@gmail.com... Sent (Ok: queued as 4CB6C40096)` It looks like the email is being sent. Check your gmail spam box. – aynber Aug 10 '22 at 15:11
  • You might want to change the From address in case of post-send bouncebacks – aynber Aug 10 '22 at 15:20
