How does PHP's Safe Mode affect the use of the 'fifth parameter' in the mail function?

When PHP's Safe Mode is enabled, the 'fifth parameter' in the mail function, which is used to specify additional parameters for the mail transport agent, is disabled for security reasons. To work around this limitation, you can use the ini_set function to set the required parameters directly in the PHP script. 

// Disable Safe Mode restrictions on the mail function
ini_set('safe_mode', 0);

// Specify additional parameters for the mail transport agent
$additional_parameters = '-femail@example.com';

// Send email using the mail function with additional parameters
mail('recipient@example.com', 'Subject', 'Message', '', $additional_parameters);
