it looks like the sendmail path can only be changed in php.ini or httpd.conf.

  Hi,
  I am using the mail function on a page, and I noticed that the page tends to hang for a while when it loads, no doubt do to having to send an email. Is there a way to send the email in a separate process. Would placing the ampersand in the sendmail path in PHP.ini file work?

  Right now, on the server, the path is:

  /usr/sbin/sendmail -t -i 

  Would it help to change the path to:

  /usr/sbin/sendmail -t -i &

  Also, could this be done through the ini_set() function instead of editing the actual PHP.ini file?
