The built in mail() function for PHP is supposed to return true/false.
Unfortunately, instead of mine returning a false, it crashes with an
"Internal Server Error" message.
Is this a common problem, and can it be fixed through code?
I called my IPP's tech support. The tech thought it was weird, and put in a
service order - but I'm still curious if it's an error I can handle.
Any thoughts?

There should be a more detailed message in the server's error log.

You may want to take a look at this class that comes with wrapper
functions that emulate the mail() function without using it. If you can
use an SMTP server, you can use the smtp_mail() function. If you can run
sendmail or equivalent, you can use sendmail_mail(). Those functions
have the same arguments as mail(), just with a different name.
