    Problem solved-> Just untick the option "Prevent 'NOBODY' from sending out mails.....blah blah" in WHM->Server confidguration->Tweak settings.

    It is a good practice to use SMTP authentication instead of using PHP mail() function.

    I use WHMCS and I've had many e-mail issues, That's why I switched to SMTP.

    If you do decide to switch use 'localhost' as the server unless the e-mail you're going to be using is on another server.

    The e-mail is name@email.com and then your password.

    I recommend you switch to it and re-enable the 'NOBODY' check.

    Thanks

    but that causes a lot more spam from the server...
