I use Eclipse PDT combined with XDebug to step through the code that's being
executed to detect where the mail sending fails.

In this case I would suggest to simple remove the @ in the __mail() function
from the Email Component (/cake/libs/controllers/components/email.php) :

function __mail() {
        $header = implode("\n", $this->__header);
        $message = implode("\n", $this->__message);
        if (ini_get('safe_mode')) {
            return mail($this->to, $this->__encode($this->subject),
$message, $header);
        }
        return mail($this->to, $this->__encode($this->subject), $message,
$header, $this->additionalParams);
    }

This will hopefully show a warning or error from the mail function telling
you why the mail isn't being sent out ...

Hope this helps.
