    or possible alternate fix, add this line to your wp-config.php file, right after all the define lines:
    ini_set(“sendmail_from”, ‘your.email@example.com’);
    Substitute your real working email address there, obviously.

    ronchicago’s method did not succeed for me, nor did either of the other two.

    I spent almost two days, solving this problem successfully. Above solution didn’t work, I tried every possible solution including checking if php mail() is enabled or not or adding the int() to config.php, nthing worked. OK here is my solution:
    1- Install WP Mail SMTP from here
    2- Set a mail on your own server like info@mydomain.com
    3- in Plugin setting try to use SMTP instead of PHP mail
    4- my test on Gmail was unsuccessful, that’s why I recommend you using your own mail
    5- any setting with SSL or TLS was unsuccessful, so I used “No encryption”.
    6- there are several available SMTP ports for me only 80 worked.

    Good luck

    Getting this when I try to configure this….

    SMTP -> ERROR: Failed to connect to server: Unable to find the socket transport "ssl" - did you forget to enable it when you configured PHP? (107137976)

    same problem :(…..do we have to configure the mail server and rest details somewhere in WP ?
