    Default Problem submitting orders

    I am having a problem having customers submit orders. For example if they choose to pay via money order or personal check everything goes through fine until they reach the last page and click submit order. After that a blank white page is displayed with:

    Email Error: Could not instantiate mail function.

    The order however shows up in my admin manager. What do I do to fix this?

    Perhaps a poke around the email settings for your site might help.
