mail no worky

[LordShryku]

Maybe my code is off....
I posted this in Install, but am just not sure anymore....

Okay, I'm thinking this has to be an install problem. I have PHP on Debian right now, but I just can't seem to get the mail function to work. Here is what is in my php.ini file right now:

[mail function]
; For Win32 only.
SMTP = localhost

; For Win32 only.
sendmail_from = [e-mail]

; For Unix only. You may supply arguments as well (default: 'sendmail -t -i').
sendmail_path = /usr/sbin/sendmail

And here is the statement I am using to try to send the mail:

mail('[e-mail]', 'A new request quote has been submitted', 'Please complete the quote request with the ID of $sid', "From: $email\n")

I'm getting headaches now from trying to figure this out, so I think it's time I ask the experts. Any help you can give is greatly appreciated.

Thanks
