SMTP is the protocol. Maybe you mean SMTPD, which I have no experience whatsoever with. Anyway, if you can't even check the mail queue, you can hardly be expected to have privileges to modify the MTA configuration.
Can you telnet localhost 25 and post the result here? (Just type quit and hit enter when it appears to hang.)

LEARN ABOUT PHP
mb_send_mail
MB_SEND_MAIL(3) 1 MB_SEND_MAIL(3)
mb_send_mail - Send encoded mail
SYNOPSIS
bool mb_send_mail NULL NULL (string $to, string $subject, string $message, [string $additional_headers], [string $additional_parame-
ter])
DESCRIPTION
Sends email. Headers and messages are converted and encoded according to the mb_language(3) setting. It's a wrapper function for mail(3),
so see also mail(3) for details.
PARAMETERS
o $to
- The mail addresses being sent to. Multiple recipients may be specified by putting a comma between each address in $to. This
parameter is not automatically encoded.
o $subject
- The subject of the mail.
o $message
- The message of the mail.
o $additional_headers (optional)
- String to be inserted at the end of the email header. This is typically used to add extra headers (From, Cc, and Bcc). Multiple
extra headers should be separated with a CRLF (
).
Note
When sending mail, the mail must contain a From header. This can be set with the $additional_headers parameter, or a default
can be set in php.ini.
Failing to do this will result in an error message similar to Warning: mail(): "sendmail_from" not set in php.ini or custom
"From:" header missing. The From header sets also Return-Path under Windows.
Note
If messages are not received, try using a LF (
) only. Some Unix mail transfer agents (most notably qmail) replace LF by
CRLF automatically (which leads to doubling CR if CRLF is used). This should be a last resort, as it does not comply with RFC
2822.
o $additional_parameter
-$additional_parameter is a MTA command line parameter. It is useful when setting the correct Return-Path header when using send-
mail.
RETURN VALUES
Returns TRUE on success or FALSE on failure.
