issue sending magento order confirmation emails

we had an issue with our sendmail program recently. for some reason it wasn't working. i ended up fixing it, but we're still not receiving confirmation emails from the store. it doesn't give us an error (as far as i can tell), but it simply isn't sending. is there anywhere somebody could suggest i look to fix it? log files, PHP files, anything? i'm at a loss and i've been working on this for 2 days with no results. the client is getting more and more impatient.

the email user is receiving all other emails, the sendmail program is working properly, etc. I have no clue what could be wrong. can somebody at least point me in the right direction?

You can do the fallow steps to trouble shoot the problem

  1. run this command in the server:

    echo "This is a test." | mail -s Testing [email protected]

  2. check is the email daemon is working

  3. check the email log server at /var/logs/sendmail this depend of your enail server software
  4. try this configuration

    Go to System > Configuration > ADVANCED > System > Mail Sending Settings

    Disable Email Communications = No

    Host = I changed it from localhost to mail.mydomain.com

    Port (25) = 25

    Set Return-Path = No

Good Luck
