WordPress Email Notification not Working

[CrackDown]

I'm having problems receiving mails from my WordPress script (whenever a user leave a comment for example).

server is MERIC

I just found out this though (maybe it's useful):

Wordpress uses the standard php mail function, which uses sendmail. No account information is needed. This is not generally a problem if you're using a hosting service, but if you're using your own box and don't have an SMTP server, the mail won't ever send. If you're using a *NIX box, you should have either postfix or sendmail on your machine; you'll just need to set them up (google for how-to's). If you don't want to go through setting up a complete mail server on you *NIX box you may find ssmtp (http://packages.debian.org/stable/mail/ssmtp) useful - it provides "A secure, effective and simple way of getting mail off a system to your mail hub". On a Windows machine, try a sendmail emulator like Glob SendMail (http://glob.com.au/sendmail/).

It seems like once it used to work so I guess it's a server-side issue.

Thanks Alan.
I used the forum because there was no need of immediate support. I have read "support issues" and "e-mail" and just thought it was the right place.

Anyway thanks, I'll let you know if I have any further issues.
