    mediawiki wants to send mail but its library isn't installed

    When a user creates a new account a confirmation e-mail is sent to the address he gave.

    To do this the wiki (mediawiki) rely on "Mail.php" which is in the PEAR library.

    The library isn't present noe is it possible to install via the Cpanel.

    How to do it?

    Thanks

    Please add the following line to the bottom of your MediaWiki's LocalSettings.php file:
    Code:
    $wgSMTP = false;
    That should force MediaWiki to use sendmail (which is enabled on x10) instead of PEAR's Mail.php
