Could not execute: /usr/sbin/sendmail

I am using gmail SMTP. can you enlighten me about this topic? Thank you!

Do you have code we can look at? ( **** out passwords or other sensitive info).
Are you are saying that you are using SMTP through your Google Apps account?

function emailsend($to,$from,$subject,$mensahe)
{
        
    try 
    {
        $mail = new PHPMailer(true); //New instance, with exceptions enabled

        //$body             = file_get_contents('contents.html');
        $body             = preg_replace('/\\\\/','', $mensahe); //Strip backslashes

        $mail->IsSMTP();                           // tell the class to use SMTP
        $mail->SMTPAuth   = true;                  // enable SMTP authentication
        $mail->Port       = 25;                    // set the SMTP server port
        $mail->Host       = "ssl://smtp.gmail.com"; // SMTP server
        $mail->Username   = "mymail@gmail.com";     // SMTP server username
        $mail->Password   = "mypassword";            // SMTP server password

        $mail->IsSendmail();  // tell the class to use Sendmail

        $mail->AddReplyTo("mymail@gmail.com","First Last");

        $mail->From       = "no_reply@ravenresort.co.nr";
        $mail->FromName   = "Admin Raven Resort";

        $tos = "$to";

        $mail->AddAddress($tos);

        $mail->Subject  = "$subject";

         $mail->AltBody    = "To view the message, please use an HTML  compatible email viewer!"; // optional, comment out and test
        $mail->WordWrap   = 80; // set word wrap

        $mail->MsgHTML($body);

        $mail->IsHTML(true); // send as HTML

        $mail->Send();
        //echo 'Message has been sent.';
    }
    catch (phpmailerException $e)
    {
        echo $e->errorMessage();
    }



}

This is my code. =[
In my other host, it works. But then when I transferred here at x10, it returned the error.
Im using Google's SMTP. I'm not sure if it's google app, but it's in my Gmail's settings. in the POP tab.

        $mail->IsSendmail();  // tell the class to use Sendmail

Remove that line and adjust/add:

    $mail->SMTPSecure = "ssl";  
    $mail->Host       = "smtp.gmail.com"; 
    $mail->Port       = 465;
