[tp31] user emails and safe_mode

when a user is to be about to get the password sent by email, it doesn’t work when safe_mode is enabled

mail() [function.mail]: SAFE MODE Restriction in effect. The fifth parameter is disabled SAFE MODE.

this is the code in save_user.processor.php which drops the error:

466 if(!mail($email, $emailsubject, $message, "From: ".$emailsender."\r\n"."X-Mailer: Content Manager - PHP/".phpversion(), "-f $emailsender")) {
467 webAlert("Error while sending mail to $mailto");
468 exit;
469 }

Maybe you can check for safe_mode and then don’t use the smtp_path parameter?

Sorry for bumping an old thread, but this is in fact a problem I’m facing myself right now.
I’ve installed MODx 1.0.2 on a PHP 5.2.12 platform, running in Safe Mode.

The errors I receive are identical to the ones Mplx described in the first post.

Does anybody know a nifty work-around for this problem?
