PHP Email settings

[Arky Bob]

Greetings all,
Help! Emails are not reaching individuals for validation. I'm trying to use PHP email, I've tried SMTP, I ran the diagnostics on both and I keep getting error messages. vB says it a server problem, Yahoo says server is fine. Obviously a setting needs to be changed somewhere...but where. I'm stuck!
Thanks,
Bob

It is a server issue. You need to have your host resolve this.

Host claims they don't know what to do, not familiar with php or where the files that need to be edited are located. If server issue, what specifically should I ask?

This is not a vB problem. vB uses the server for it's email. If there are problems, then the issue is either with the server itself or on the receiving end. The error you got clearly indicates the server is not setup correctly for PHP mail.
