Does your install of postfix have a sendmail wrapper? Is it in the
normal sendmail location (/usr/bin/sendmail)? Is this on the same
machine as your php install? Does the user in which Apache is running
as have permission to invoke the sendmail wrapper?

Create a phpinfo page and make sure the 'sendmail_path' is set.

If that's set, you can just use php mail() as normal. The mail() command
doesn't care about what sort of MTA it uses, it just cares it knows
where it is and how to access it.
