If it should've been sent automatically from the web server, this 
behaviour actually sounds reasonable - web servers sending mail by 
themselves usually sets off quite some alarms at hosting companies :) so 
they're often on internal block lists.

It usually works if the web server doesn't simply run the local mail 
function, but logs into a regular mail server (then again, in that case, 
the login name/pw need to be on the web server, i.e. they're potentially 
exposed to the world).

Rock and a hard place, i guess :)
