I have got a website hosted on a home server running Ubuntu 14.04 LTS and the website had a send email section, it used to work and the email on the .php form used to receive the emails sent via this email however since there was a power cut and the server got rebooted it stopped working?
Could anyone please provide some help I'm not sure where to turn to for this one!
Try sending a mail from the commmand line and see if that's delivered.
If it's delivered then check your web server configuration and error logs.
If it's not delivered then check your mail logs.

It's being blocked by spamhaus apparently I have to send a verification in order to say it's not malware or spam, have you got any idea on how this system works or how long it takes?
Hey,
Thank you for helping me find the problem I appreciate your help honestly. It was a big and. I'm having problems with removing that block for. Them I have removed one but I have tried removing the other one and it says removal blocked maybe it's something I'm doing wrong?
The Spamhaus PBL is a DNSBL database of end-user IP address ranges which should not be delivering unauthenticated SMTP email to any Internet mail server except those provided for specifically by an ISP for that customer's use. The PBL helps networks enforce their Acceptable Use Policy for dynamic and non-MTA customer IP ranges.
So it looks like you're using your home broadband connection to try and send mail directly to other servers rather than through your ISPs mail server.
