In my tests I have also got a lot of errors, depending on the server and on what was missing.

Here are some errors for future reference:

I was astonished to find out that two different servers (unix and windows) didn't allow me to send email because
Code:
$config['newline'] = "\r\n";
was missing from the configuration file email.php.

So, with:

- a SMTP server
- the right credentials
- the correct configuration email.php file
- the newline parameter defined as above

I was able to send emails from my local PHP installation, using Wampserver on Windows 7.

No need to:
- edit anything in php.ini
- use ini_set()

Yes, this!!!

I was having errors with the Communicate module in EE 1.7x; Running on a Windows server.

Needed to change system>core>core.email.php so that

var $newline = "\r\n";
var $crlf = "\r\n";

Now the mail is sent.

The reason you are all having this problem, is because the smtp settings are in your php.ini file.

php.ini
Code:
[mail function]
; For Win32 only.
; http://php.net/smtp
SMTP = smtp.comcast.net
; http://php.net/smtp-port
smtp_port = 25
