I've got a php mail script which was working ok but the mail() call 
returned a bunch of errors today. The trouble is that it only returns true 
or false, I was wondering if there is any way to get more feedback from 
sendmail about what what went wrong, since I don't know whether I fed it 
bad data or whether sendmail playing up. I can't find any alternative mail 
calls I could use in the PHP manual.

This is on a shared virtual hosting system so I don't have access to the 
linux or sendmail configuration and I can't find any log files in my 
userspace that pertain to the sendmail calls. The system is running PHP 
5.3.27, I think the OS is Linux 2.6.32.
