Nope - spaces are allowed and work fine in the sendmail_path paramater. It
doesn't execute the string as a program, but as the string itself - passing
the whole thing to exec() or whatever it is, so it's all good.

My sendmail_path setting includes -t and -i options which I believe are
required for it to send email properly. Maybe that's your problem? The -t
option is what is important:

       -t        When Exim is receiving a locally-generated, non-SMTP
message
                 on its standard input, the -t option causes the recipients
of
                 the message to be obtained from the To:, Cc:, and Bcc:
header
                 lines  in  the message instead of from the command
arguments.
                 The addresses are extracted before any rewriting takes
place.

Hello,
I do not do php, but the above setting of sendmail_path will probably
not execute /usr/local/sbin/exim with the two arguments -f and
webmaster@??? but will try to execute the nonexisting
command
"/usr/local/sbin/exim<SPACE>-f<SPACE>webmaster@???".

Quoting from PHP doc:
| Example 3. Sending mail with extra headers and setting an additional

command
| line parameter.

|
| mail("nobody@???", "the subject", $message,
|     "From: webmaster@$SERVER_NAME", "-fwebmaster@$SERVER_NAME");

|
|    Note: This fifth parameter was added in PHP 4.0.5.

However this is disabled with "Safe-Mode"

Perhaps setting "sendmail_from=webmaster@???" is
translated by php to the respective -f option?
