sending mail problem

OK, I have installed the IMP, its all working fine, except I
can't send mail. When I try, by clicking the send mail button in a
compose.php popup, I get two things. One is the same window reloads
just the same as it was before, ie compose.php reloads looking just
the same. The other is that I get a line appearing in my mail log
saying something like
Mar 16 15:54:40 mailhost imapd[10006]: Command stream end of file,
while reading line user=imaptestacct host=mailhost [IP# of mailhost]
I am running UW-Imap, horde-1.3.3, imp-2.3.6, php 4.04pl1,
apache 1.3.17, with a PEAR from cvs, etc all on MacOS X Server (yes,
an unusual system, and no I don't get to change this). At the moment,
I have no database - adding mysql will come straight after I have got
it sending mail.
I have tested that I can send mail from the command line
using sendmail, that the sendmail path is configured correctly, that
I can send and receive using imap (I was only able to test send using
mtest, but it worked).
Sendmail settings from imp/config/conf.php
$conf['mailer']['type'] = 'sendmail';
$conf['mailer']['params'] = array();
$conf['mailer']['params']['sendmail_path'] = '/usr/sbin/sendmail';
The apache error log does seem to contain a lot of
[Fri Mar 16 15:51:22 2001] [error] mod_ssl: SSL handshake interrupted
by system [Hint: Stop button pressed in browser?!] (System error
follows)
[Fri Mar 16 15:51:22 2001] [error] System: Connection reset by peer (errno: 54)
Which may or may have anything directly to do with it.
Oh, and yes I've read the FAQ and tried putting php in
safe_mode, which didn't appear to make any difference.
So, where do I go from here? I desperately want to get this working.
Cheers
