I am having the same problem, but with 2.7.1.
In fact, I have received zero emails on new user registrations – neither one to the admin email address, nor the one to the registering user.
I can see in the admin panel that the user is added.
Solved my problem by switching to SMTP. Wish this was in the documentation somewhere. If you’re using a host ISP, not all support the out of the box method in WordPress…
Hi there kewe
See: “http://wordpress.org/support/topic/243379”
I just recently posted a very similar problem. What exactly (in the Admin???) did you do to install “switching to SMTP” if you don’t mind telling me?

The issue I posted is resolved. I did not have to turn any SMTP business on. I simply needed to fix SABRE and now my regist and password recovery emails are working.
