I've got joomla installed and am working with some contact abilities. However, I can't get joomla to send me anything to my mail box. Here's what teh settings are now:

Mailer PHP Mail Function
Mail from XXXXX@gmail.com (real address is listed)
From Name Watson Quality Ford Commercial Sales
Sendmail Path /usr/sbin/sendmail
SMTP Authentication No
SMTP Username (BLANK)
SMTP Password (BLANK)
SMTP Host (BLANK)

I've also tried switching the Mailer to Sendmail but it doesn't change anything.

Please change the host to localhost
The rest of the settings are correct.

I switched everything to SMTP and tried using an email address I created in the Network Solutions Account Manager (admin@watsonqualitycommercialsales.com)

These were my settings:
Mailer: SMTP Server
Mail from: admin@watsonqualitycommercialsales.com
From Name: Watson Quality Commercial Sales
Sendmail Path: /usr/sbin/sendmail
SMTP Authentication: No Yes (tried both)
SMTP Username: admin@watsonqualitycommercialsales.com
SMTP Password: *********
SMTP Host: localhost

and I got this error:
PHPMAILER_FROM_FAILEDadmin@watsonqualityfordcommercialsales.com

edit* put in some : to make it easier to read settings

Did you try as the Mailer set to Mail and localhost as the host (auth: no)

using PHP Mail Function and Sendmail - the mails appear to go through successfully but Joomla has no error log that I'm aware of and I never get an email (checked junk/spam)

I tested the mail functionality with PHP on your hosting package, and I confirmed the emails are sending. I'm not sure why you are not getting the emails. Have you retested recently?

I am having the same issue with PHP MAIL(). I had scripts that were working up until recently and then they stopped working. I have tried all forms of mailing and I do not get the email from my forms. I have also tried sending to multiple emails addresses to see if there was an issue there but none of my accounts received any emails. I talked with support and they created a ticket and he did mention something about blacklisting but did not give me all the info on that. Anyone have any ideas what is going on?
