You can output a debug msg to a file in the function
scripts/mailposts.php#MailPostsSendmail. If this debug message
are wrote, it think, the pmwiki-System works correct and the
point of the problem is the sendmail command. Then, you can also
write a own dummy sendmail command as a simple shell script and
can check, whether this is correct called with correct arguments.
This shell script should be the same permissions, as the original
sendmail-command.

It is possible, that you can't call the external sendmail
command? (a permission problem) -> login with the www user
account and test it.
