Probably you server is not supporting sendmail. Or the e-mail address assigned to zenphoto is not being allowed.

I tried this:
*********************
<?php

// compose message
$message = "Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, consectetuer adipiscing elit.";
$message .= " Nam iaculis pede ac quam. Etiam placerat suscipit nulla.";
$message .= " Maecenas id mauris eget tortor facilisis egestas.";
$message .= " Praesent ac augue sed enim aliquam auctor. Ut dignissim ultricies est.";
$message .= " Pellentesque convallis tempor tortor. Nullam nec purus.";

// make sure each line doesn't exceed 70 characters
$message = wordwrap($message, 70);

// send email
mail('me@mydomain.com', 'Nonsensical Latin', $message);
?>
********************

It works..
I tried with a different site admin email (the one @mydomain) it does not work either...

Any other ideas on how to check both of theses?

Thanks!!

You have enabled one of our two mail plugins and configured it properly as well?

Yes I enabled zenphoto_sendmail v1.3.1. However I don't see it under Option -> Plugins.. should it be there? If not, how do I configure it properly?

The sendmail plugin does not have any options actually (my fault but I can't remember everything).

Your admin account needs a vaild email address.

It has a valid email address. I tried both my hotmail address and my own host provided address @mydomain.com).

Isn't there a log somewhere I can check?

Duh -

I put my email address under my Master user account and it started working.

I thought that the place to put my email was under Options -> General -> Site Email.

IT WORKS NOW THANKS!!!!!

The doc on on site email clearly says:
[i]This email address will be used as the From address for all mails sent by Zenphoto.[/i]

So the admin email is needed to actually get emails.
