As I've explained and demonstrated on IRC this problem is NOT a FUDforum problem, But rather a communication issue between PHP and the smtp server.
Even the simple mail() command fails to send email.

I got it working now...
The problem I found was that the SMTP property in the php.ini file was set to "localhost" instead of my actual service providers smtp host. I changed it and the problem went away.
I would think that the "SMTP Server" field in the "global setting manager" would at least temporarily override the php.ini SMTP settings, but it clearly was not (as indicated by a phpinfo() dump) I think a simple "ini_set" command could accomplish this. What does the "SMTP Server" field in the "global setting manager" affect? (I will probably look at the code myself, but I thought I would at least let you know what the solution to my problem was since you were so helpful on the IRC)
Cheers!
