Just upgraded this morning and anytime I attempt to select the mail() function to send mail and save. it resets back to sendmail. Is there anyway I can fix this issue?.

In inc/admin_pref.html.php, make sure the SMTP select option looks like this:

Code:
<SELECT NAME="mail_method">
                <OPTION VALUE="local"<?php echo htmlspecialchars($db_settings['mail_method']) == 'local' ? ' selected' : ''; ?>>Sendmail</OPTION>
                <OPTION VALUE="smtp" <?php echo htmlspecialchars($db_settings['mail_method']) == 'smtp' ? ' selected' : ''; ?>>SMTP Server</OPTION>
                <OPTION VALUE="mail" <?php echo htmlspecialchars($db_settings['mail_method']) == 'mail' ? ' selected' : ''; ?>>PHP mail()</OPTION>               
             </SELECT>

Look close it was a small typo that prevented you from seeing PHP mail was selected.

As I said, make sure that your admin.html.php looks EXACTLY like that.  You can just copy and paste the code above to be sure.
