Hi shriram,

I personally use an SMTP server to send email (you can set up one in Administration/Configuration/Mailing) and that should work for you too, but we'll definitely look into the problem for next release.

Thanks for reporting it.

hi all,

This was a false alarm, its an human error and not an bug- to my understanding. I had selected "Default PHP" instead of "SMTP server" in the Mail transport:.
Done the change and its working fine.
