I'd like to create PECL module which could replace mail() function. The new
function would use SMTP protocol. I can't call any external utilities so this
is the only posibility to send the mails. The environment is shared hosting
platform so there are some limits, like forbidding the calling suid-ed
binaries (like /usr/sbin/sendmail) and low number of user processes.
This have to be hidden implementation so the users won't need to change their
code, especially calling of mail() function.
Is it possible to override the internal function in additional module?

Hi,
the funxtions are stored in the EG(function_table) hash table. So you could
delete or rename the mail function from there and add a new one.
APD has an override_function() and a rename_function() which can be used to
replace/rename a function by a user defined one. Maybe the code of these
help you a bit.

For this being successfull it's important that your extension is loaded
after the standard extension.
Even though this works I doubt that you can can rely on it. (stability,
changing APIs, ...)
