ALRIGHT!!!!!

Problem solved: went to the install tool, changed the config to "[MAIL][transport] = sendmail" and now everything works fine!  I would never had thought about simply changing this option.

Now the weird thing is that the install tool does state that setting "transport" to "mail" is " the most unreliable option. If you are serious about sending mails, consider using "smtp" or "sendmail"."

If they think it's unreliable, why use it as the default option?

Weird...


Anyway, thanks for all the help!


Best regards,
Celso
