Haven't tried this, but in php.ini there is this setting:
; This directive allows you to disable certain functions for security reasons.
disable_functions =
Click to expand...

So you ought to change that to:
Code: 
disable_functions = mail
?
 
looks like that may work....

restart apache after making chnages also.

Should be /usr/local/lib/php.ini

If you use vi, you can
Code: 
:find disable_functions
to locate the right spot.
 
done ,i hope every thing will work fine :)
i restarted apache:
root@sv31 [~]# service httpd restart
Stopping httpd: [ OK ]
Starting httpd: [Thu Jan 8 21:33:57 2004] [warn] module perl_module is already loaded, skipping
[ OK ]
 
As i mentioned to you earlier, the perl error is nothing to worry about :)
