Description
The file sapi/fpm/www.conf.in currently contains the following line:
;php_admin_value[sendmail_path] = /usr/sbin/sendmail -t -i -f www@my.domain.com
I think the intent of this is really to illustrate the use of php_admin_value rather than provide guidance on setting sendmail_path; however, I think a lot of people actually want to configure their sendmail_path and then they see this example, and then they blindly copy and paste it (just changing the path and email address as needed) without really thinking about it much. The problem is that including the -f option in sendmail_path is generally a bad practice and should be avoided.
The reason this is bad is that the PHP mail() function has a parameter $additional_params which is intended to be used to specify the -f option. But if you specify an -f option in $additional_params and there is already an -f option in sendmail_path, you end up passing the -f option to sendmail twice. This may cause sendmail to fail completely, possibly with an error message like More than one "from" person.
For many, many years, there have been lots of people having trouble with this:

... and so on ...
I was wondering why there seem to be so many people dealing with poorly configured sendmail_path values... I think at least part of the problem may be this example code in the PHP-FPM www.conf file.
Can this example be changed to something else? Maybe something like this:
;php_admin_value[sendmail_path] = /path/to/sendmail -t -i
