    In reply to: mail() not working

    For me, I get the host may have disabled mail() function.
    What I did is go into php.ini and set the smtp server to a functional mail server. i.e. smtp.my-domain-name.com Email retrieval and other mail related function started working after. If you dont run your own mail server, you can try to use your ISP’s smtp mail server. However, your isp may not allow you to relay mail through their mail server. In that case, you are out of luck unless you run your own mail server.
