 * I know I’m putting in the right password to login into to my dashboard, I just
   changed it from the generic and it was updated correctly. But when I try to login,
   it says it’s incorrect, and when I click “lost my password” and enter my info,
   this is the error I get:
 * > The e-mail could not be sent.
   >  Possible reason: your host may have disabled
   > the mail() function…
 * What the heck?!
