did you SPM install 'smtpd'?

If you have Evolution with the Sending Mail option: SMTP, set (check to
"on") "Server requires authentication, "Use Secure Connection:" Whenever
Possible, Authentication type: PLAIN 

If you are using Postfix, is IPv6 enabled in your hosts file? It will
fail upon reading "::1" from your hosts file. 

The first thing you have to do is go to /var/log and read mail.err,
mail.log, mail.info and mail.log.

If it is Postfix, start a Root terminal, then

Code:
--------------------
    
  postfix stop
  postfix newaliases
  postfix start
  
--------------------

<exit Root Terminal.>
