User Registration doesn't send out password (4 posts)

    When a new user registers onto the blog, they are never emailed their password. When they click on Forgot password and fill out/submit the form the page says:

    "The e-mail could not be sent.
    Possible reason: your host may have disabled the mail() function..."

    Here's the registration page http://www.stuffwelike.com/stuffwelike/wp-login.php?action=register

    I'm using v2.3. Also my host is BlueHost.com.
    Any solutions?

    I've fixed this problem by actually creating the email address wordpress@stuffwelike.com. I read in other topics that wordpress@yourdomain.com is where the emails come from, so at least with my host that email actually has to be created.
