Mail class not found

[Kevin]

This might be a bug for a completely seperate software package but I did use the debian install script.

when I try to send a recieved fax to an email (I have it configured to use a seperate SMTP server) I get this error in apache:

[Mon Feb 22 15:39:29 2016] [error] [client (IP)] PHP Fatal error: Class 'Mail' not found in /usr/share/php/Mail/smtp.php on line 74, referer: http://(efaxhost)/avantfax/email.php?fid=33

I poked around and found this is an error in pear but I couldn't figure out what package is missing.

Help please.

A lot of digging around and I am thinking that somehow something is not configured correctly between apache/php/pear mailer.

/usr/share/php/Mail/smtp.php is the php-pear mailer system.

SMTP implementation of the PEAR Mail interface. Requires the Net_SMTP class.

Here is a list of my pear packages:

Installed packages, channel pear.php.net:

I hope someone has an idea of what could be wrong.

Got it!!
Looks like, for whatever reasion, there may be a bug in the code for debian towards using an external SMTP server:

add:

require_once 'Mail.php';

to line 59 of:
includes/htmlMimeMail5.php
