Okay... then ensure you have set the proper variables for your host:

smtphost smtp.example.com
smtpuser user@example.com
#smtppasswd your_password (if this is not set/disabled you will be prompted for 
password when sending the report)

Is your e-mail server using TLS or SSL or have any other specific need 
(e.g., different smtp port other that 25)?
