Agreed.  You'll want to fix this.

The problem is that php's mail() function is misconfigured on your web 
server.  http://php.net/mail has information on how to configure 
your php.ini file to make mail sending work (hint: set itto some 
SMTP server you trust to work).

The problem might also be solvable by having a correctly-configured and 
installed mail server on the web serving computer itself, but that's 
probably more complicated.

come out?"  I am not able rightly to apprehend the kind of confusion of
ideas that could provoke such a question.
