Yes, from what I see in those headers (excerpt):

This maybe also due to my recent install of Post.Office.
Can anybody help me ? What shall I provide to help narrowing the issue?
etc.

Thanks for the tip, but in this case it is not the problem.

Here is a sample PHP script that does not work *anymore*.
(note the space after the 'From:' header)

<?php

if(mail("demo@xxxxxxxxxxx", "", "", "From: $from_name <$from_email>")) {
                print("OK!");
        }
        else {
                print("Mail server down. Call Tenon to complain.");
        }
?>

None of the dozens of php scripts on my server does send mail anymore.
Most are open source, well written ones that worked for years.
I'm pretty sure that the scripts are not the problem.

It must be something else related to tenon updates (core, php, ?),
or the install of PO.

Which log file can I provide to find the source of error ?

What test can I do to check that email gets out ?

Why in my /var/spool/clientmqueue there are only files created
from 26 Jun to 28 Jun, and no new ones ?

And if it is impossible to host itools (and php scripts sending emails) 
and post.office on the same server, how can I remove Post.Office and 
restart itools basic sendmail ?

Thanks for your help.
