    Some hosting situations the standard email may not work--check http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/wp-mail-smtp/

    Hi, I checked out the plugin you sent me and unfortunately I dont have a first clue what most of the settings mean! would you be able to tell me what I needto do to set it up e.g. I dont know what SMTP means. Apparently i need an SMTP Host & an SMTP Port? Not sure what the encryption options are for or the authentication options? Im quite new to this so If you could explain it really simply I would be very grateful!

    You will need to get most of that info from your host.

    I tried the plugin mentioned above and it did not fix the problem of not sending a password to new users who register.
