 * hallo,
 * when a user registers the email containing their password never arrives.
    The
   registration completes succesfully( i checked the database). it also shows ‘the
   registration completes-check yuor email’ message
 * i searched for other posts and i ve installed the smtp-send plugin but still 
   nothing. (i hope i ve installed it right- i just extracted it into wp-content/
   plugins folder)
 * is there something i missed.. ?

 * ok, i registered, and didnt get an email.
 * you activate the plugin by going to your wp-admin/plugins.php and activating 
   it.
 * do you have smtp running on that box of yours?
 * I’ll bet you dont.
