I have been pouring over the forum for a few hours (unable to find an answer to my problem/situation) and finally decided to post my question. My site has been running pretty much flawlessly (well with exception of a crappy host a few years ago) and love ZenCart. This morning I had order emails waiting as I do most mornings, along with PayPal payment notifications. About noon I received a payment email but no order email, didn't think too much of it as sometimes it does come in slower. I was filling orders, and when I came back from the post office there were 2 more PayPal payment emails with no order emails. I decided to send my 'Shipped' emails first and discovered the problem. The first update I tried appended the comments, however gave me an error of:
ERROR: Failed sending email to: "XXX XXXXXX" with subject: "Order Update #44614" Could not instantiate mail function. Please check Admin->Configuration->Email Options->Email Transport.
I tried another record update and received the same error.
Additionally, the Contact Us page appears to send the email, however they never arrive. I have another ZenCart 1.5.1 site hosted on the same server and it is working correctly with customer updates and the Contact Us page.
I have not changed any settings on my ZenCart in months, well with exception of the PayPal Express module about a month ago, though nothing else. I contacted my host, they did some tests and said the PHP was running as it is supposed to and confirmed they had done no recent software updates or configuration modifications.
I am running 1.5.1 on a Linux server
PHP Version 5.3.22
MySQL 5.1.68-cll

Thanks in advance for helping, I know your time is valuable.
