Yes , I have phpmyadmin installed .   Surely I could add/modify the 
database .

The user admin is not even in the database. This means  "database + 
sendmail" didn't receive anything from savannah (well, I could add this 
manually with phpmyadmin)

Below is the actual scripts  and it does work with sendmail correctly 
because I received the message and /var/log/maillog  has the "sent" 
message. (address@hidden) is the admin email.

<?php

 mail("address@hidden","Testing","Testing","Power Rangers");

?>
