php mail function is very slow + wordpress didn't send mail

I host my another site on my own server [ubuntu+apache+wordpress] and notice that notification mail function on my site is not work. After install sendmail, php mail function is working fine but very slow. If you also have this problem, below is how i fix it. first make sure your /etc/hosts file first line look like this 
127.0.0.1       localhost.localdomain localhost yourhostname
hostname can found on /etc/hostname. Now php mail function should work correctly. But wordpress still deny to send mail out. This have to fix with little hack[ i don't have other better way yet ].

1. edit file "wp-includes/class-phpmailer.php".
2. Looking for the line 'public $From = 'root@localhost';'.
3. Change root@localhost to something else like name@yourhost.com. I don't know why but this work for me. :)

If you have programmed headers do not adopt post-values unfiltered!!
Often used in scripts, and often abused by spam mailings:



If somebody posts email="me@example.com
Bcc:someone1@example.com,someoneelse@example.com,..."
(with linebreak behind me@example.com)

You get following headers:

From: me@example.com
Bcc:someone1@example.com,someoneelse@example.com

Too many open files

Last week tomcat log file report many error about "Too many open files" when it has high traffic. Some in catalina_log say 2007-04-07 16:13:40 HttpProcessor[80][272] Starting background thread 2007-04-07 16:13:40 HttpConnector[80] accept: java.net.SocketException: Too many open files and here is from localhost_log 2007-04-07 16:13:40 StandardWrapperValve[myservlet]: Servlet.service() for servlet myservlet threw exception java.io.FileNotFoundException: /home/log/mylog_070407.log (Too many open files) This is because too many file descriptors're opened by tomcat. File descriptor can be limited in both system level and shell level. To check maximum number of fd in system type 'cat /proc/sys/fs/file-max'. In my case it is 65536(someone said it should set to 200000). Tomcat error when try to open socket number 272 so I think 65536 is ok for me for now. Anyway if u want to set it add 'fs.file-max = 200000' to /etc/sysctl.conf pnix@pnix-a7:~$ cat /proc/sys/fs/fil...

Mount ISO, CUE/BIN, NRG, IMG, MDF files in ubuntu

I known that to mount iso file pnix@pnix-a7n:~$ sudo mount -o loop file.iso mountpoint or pnix@pnix-a7n:~$ sudo mount -o loop -t iso9660 file.iso mountpoint and for cue/bin file ,I convert it to iso first use bchunk pnix@pnix-a7n:~$ bchunk file.bin file.cue file.iso but how about the others. After some search, I collect tips to handle many types of image file in linux. For nrg [ nero image ], img [ clone cd] and mdf [ alcohol 120% ] files, We need nrg2iso, ccd2iso and mdf2iso to convert those image files to iso image. Luckily, All are in Feisty repos. pnix@pnix-a7n:~$ sudo aptitude install nrg2iso ccd2iso mdf2iso Reading package lists... Done Building dependency tree Reading state information...
