Bugzilla is not sending out emails

apache-2.2bugzillaemailinstallationsmtp

Hi I'm pretty new at this and I'd like to ask how to debug any of my installations. Bugzilla doesn't seem to be sending out emails. If i set the delivery method to 'test' a mailer.testfile is successfully generated. However when i set it to 'smtp' no emails are ever received by the intended recepients. I also am not sure which files to attach here so if anyone needs anything to be pasted just tell me and i'll post it asap. Thank you very much in advance.

There is params file for bugzilla configuration you need to provide this configuration option: 'mail_delivery_method' = > 'Sendmail'. Your server where you host your bugzilla installation needs to be configured to be able to forward/relay the emails to your smtp server.
