 * As far as I can see, you have not configured the plugin at all (`Mailer: mail`).
 * Please visit this page: [https://wordpress.org/plugins/wp-mail-smtp/](https://wordpress.org/plugins/wp-mail-smtp/)–
   and read the possible mailers that you can use to send emails. There will be 
   links to configure any of them.
 * You need to switch from `Default (none)` mailer to anything else in plugin settings.
