Can't easily use to replace sendmail for PHP apps

[geerlingguy]

I'm trying to use mhsendmail as a sendmail replacement for some Drupal sites, and when I try sending emails using Drupal's built-in email functionality (with PHP's sendmail_path defined as /opt/mailhog/mhsendmail, where the binary is located), I get the following error in the logs:

flag provided but not defined: -femail@example.com
Usage of /opt/mailhog/mhsendmail:
  -from="nobody@example": SMTP sender
  -smtp-addr="localhost:1025": SMTP server address

It looks like mhsendmail expects a nice -from=address format, but Drupal (and many other PHP apps I've encountered use -faddress to provide a from email address.

Can you add support for this format, so mhsendmail can be more of a drop-in replacement for sendmail?

Thanks @geerlingguy - I'd assumed things like sendmail flags would be configurable, then I looked at the Drupal source... hope this fix works!

Haha, for most things, Drupal's wonderfully configurable. But not sendmail :P
