Check the logs of your Message Transfer Agent (MTA) which could be sendmail, postfix, exim, etc...
If it is a Linux box for example, you can check under /var/log the approriate file or directory related to "mail" or the MTA. |

Please post what Operating System and version you have.
As @zaxxon advises, the clues will be in the mail log for your mail software. Other clues will be in the output from mailq which may include words like "Deferred" or whatever perhaps implying a problem upstream from your server. |
