Check your message transfer agent configuration as that is what the PHP mail() function interacts with. Likely a permissions issue.

Thanks for the reply. Some updates: it seems that PHP mail is actually sending OK, as I can receive email through either gmail or yahoo accounts. However. I cannot receive email through our example.com addresses. Our site is currently being hosted separately from our domain registrar(who also handles our mail/MX records). It seems that our web server example.com will NOT send email to our actual example.com email addresses, but rather the mail is kept internal to the web host. Where do I look to try to send the example.com email addresses to mailboxes that are outside of the web server? I hope this makes sense. I am a bit confused at this point.

Me too, but it sounds like DNS/routing issues. I would begin with your hosting provider.

Coopster,
I got it fixed. Thank you for wanting to help. I had to run a command in ssh to disable the web host's internal mail handling so it would be handled by the proper mailbox.

Can you offer any details? Exemplify any particulars, of course. I'm curious what you had to modify? I'm guessing it was a mail configuration but I would like to know what it was ... as may future readers.

No problem Coopster. I hate when I find posts where someone says they solved it but offer no resolution. In my case i needed to run the following command:
/usr/local/psa/bin
./domain --update domain.com -mail_service false
This shut down the internal mail server and let our actual delivery method be used. This was with a 1and1 cloud hosting package with plesk 10.2. Logged in via ssh using PUTTY to execute the command.. :)
