That has nothing to do with how the mail text will be handed over to mail. Seems your mail transfer agent (MTA) is not set up properly (postfix? sendmail? ...?). Make sure you can send mails outside - the command for sending mail seems to have no errors in it.

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. CHANGELOG
+--------+---------------------------------------------------+ |Version | | | | | | | Description | | | | +--------+---------------------------------------------------+ | 5.0.0 | | | | | | | The Content-Type and Content-Transfer-Encoding | | | headers may be redefined as of PHP 5.0.0.
