But in general, try to send email from the command line. You may need to configure a smart host. This depends of the institution where you are working, firewall rule for smtp-specific ports and so on. As soon as you can send mail from the command line check your dspace.cfg again, restart dspace if you had to change something in the config, try the re- gistration process again. If this still doent work, then your local mail server does not support sending through the sendmail program. Most alternative MTAs such as postfix and so on have a stub programm in- stalled that mimicks the behaviour of sendmail and most server software uses this. Its kind of mail API. If you still have problems, you would have to dis- close some of the information required for proper diagnosis, id est, operating system, MTA software you use, version numbers of all packages involved, dspace, java, tomcat, the whole stack, you know. And, if it still doesnt work, it might be wise to search help in a forum belonging to your operating system unless you are using what most of the parti- cipants on this list use (my guess: RedHat).
