Can't send email after upgrading to 1.3.8a

I am upgrading from 1.3.2 to 1.3.8a, up to dateeverything is going great no problems. The only one i have is that with the upgrade i cannot send emails from any of the pages , customer support, order confirmation, etc... Although emails are stored in the DB's "email_archive" table
I've been looking and found out that if I replace the "functions_email.php" of 1.3.8a with the one from an earlier version (1.3.5) emails are sent...
Does anybody know what new features in functions_email.php may cause my upgrade not sending emails? I have been looking at it but don't have a clue..

can anybody help please? Thanks!!!

Which "Email Transport" are you using in Admin->Configuration->Email Options?

If you switch to PHP, what happens?

:clap: Works!!!
Sorry I didn't realize there was this change in 1.2.8 (the PHP mail option), I just assumed the old settings would work aswell

Thanks a lot for that Dr. Byte!!
