Firstly Id ask the host if the webserver is able to send emails
globally, some ISPs either disable the sendmails on the web hosting
machines, or limit them and you have to use there smtp.domain.com
server, which if Im not mistaken in RC3 is a lot of patching of files.

btw RC3 is not really that good in the wiki area. you would be better
either with the latest 1.9CVS code or 1.8.4
