I don't think so (when I looked anyway), but I hacked the PHP mail
function and compiled it as a user function... It doesn't do any checking
(never got around to it) but it works. Someday I'll do that...
The first comment is what I used to compiled it... you'll need to tweak
some of the options to point to the right place. I don't remember the
exact syntax to add it to the database, but it's in the manual and was
easy... you might also needto change the path to sendmail...
