what error did u get? Did u try on the default theme first?
Here is the return error message:
Warning: fsockopen() [function.fsockopen]: unable to connect to mail.randyhannaphotography.com:25 (Connection refused) in /home/randyhan/public_html/blog_test/wp-includes/class-smtp.php on line 105
An error has occurred when trying to send this email:
» Language string failed to load: connect_host
I changed the port to 26 on the advice of my hosting company, but it still returned the same error.

use php or sendmail instead of smtp under wp-admin -> email -> email options, sending method
If that doesn’t work for some reason, you could also try Gregarious or Share This. Both do the same thing, basically, I prefer Gregarious.
RESOLVED by using php as email options contary to the instructions.
Ditto. Using PHP resolved the following error we suddenly received after working properly with SMTP settings for months …
An Error Has Occured When Trying To Send The E-Mail
>> Language string failed to load: data_not_accepted
Why it worked for so long and then suddenly didn’t one day is a mystery. But changing the options to PHP mail worked. Thanks!
Hi again Lester
1. I am having a problem with the email page that comes up. If you select a ‘pop up’ page then the information that is on that page (to send an email to a friend) has the margin so far left on the border line of the pop up window. It it okay on the ‘stand alone page’ as the margin for the information is the same as the rest of the page content.
2. If I select ‘stand alone’ page then the email information page will appear 3 times. That is you get 3 email boxes. Two above the total blog site and if I scroll down the page to the normal web page it will appear correctly on the page.
2. Whether you select ‘pop up’ or ‘stand alone page’ it also takes a while for this page to actually appear. Very slow.
I hope you have some answers for me. I do love your plugins (I have been working on several on them this week) I just want my new site to be great. My partner and I agree that you are a GENIUS and we will definitely be promoting you when our weblog is up and running. Thanks.
I have same problem and tried to set the php as mailer…
no improvements………. 🙁
Try PHP, Sendmail or SMTP, 1 should at least work. Also try with multiple addresses
