* PEAR's Mail:: interface. Defines the interface for implementing
* mailers under the PEAR hierarchy, and provides supporting functions
* useful in multiple mailer backends.
* @version $Revision: 294747 $
* Line terminator used for separating header lines.
* Provides an interface for generating Mail:: objects of various
* @param string $driver The kind of Mail:: object to instantiate.
* @param array $params The parameters to pass to the Mail:: object.
* @return object Mail a instance of the driver class or if fails a PEAR Error

* Implements Mail::send() function using php's built-in mail()
* @param mixed $recipients Either a comma-seperated list of recipients
* (RFC822 compliant), or an array of recipients,
* each RFC822 valid. This may contain recipients not
* specified in the headers, for Bcc:, resending
* @param array $headers The array of headers to send with the mail, in an
* associative array, where the array key is the
* header name (ie, 'Subject'), and the array value
* is the header value (ie, 'test'). The header
* produced from those values would be 'Subject:
