Posting this since it may save someone else some time...even though it means admitting an "oh, duh!" moment!

I was moving an eZ publish installation from one server to another, and was mystified when notification e-mails for collected information weren't working on the new server. Turns out that eZ publish fails silently if Sendmail is not installed. So don't just assume sendmail is there - check it!

Hi,

Could you fill up a bug report about this. There should be an error message in logs/debug output, etc. ?
