    It seems that I have tried everything under the sun to get email working.

    Sendmail
    smtp without a plugin hack(w/gmail)
    the config-smtp plugin(w/gmail)
    tried some other email hacks

    If you are not using sendmail should you be getting data in your mail.err/mail.log files.
    I am get the same error in the mail.err file it seems every 20 minutes.

    Dec 16 13:40:02 Case sm-msp-queue[23137]: My unqualified host name (Case) unknown; sleeping for retry

    Case is the name of the localhost but I am trying to use gmail so I have no idea why it is using it.

    If you use the C2C config-smtp plugin(w/gmail) how do you troubleshoot it if you don't get the test email? Is there another log file?

    edit:
    Also I am getting the "disabled the mail() function" (when tryiing to retrieve a password) error when I have the smtp plugin activated.

    any hints or pointers would be great.
    Thanks
