Mail has to go through a mail server, correct about that.  If you are running this on a development environment (perhaps your home PC) then your ISP may let you use theirs… not sure.  If that’s the case, check what your settings are with them, or open up your email program and see what you have it set to, and try those.

I can’t use ISP (SMTP) because I’m running it on godaddy server, what setting should I use for:

$config[’protocol’] = ‘’;
$config[’smtp_host’] = ‘’;
$config[’smtp_user’] = ‘’;
$config[’smtp_pass’] = ‘’;
$config[’smtp_port’] = ‘’;

to set it up with apache and php?

There is no way for me to know that, if I did know it, I could send spam through your server.  Most servers work with native PHP mail() but if your does not, then you’ll need to ask godaddy.

Could you be more specific about “Most servers work with native PHP mail()”
I think that’s what I need but I’m confused on how to set it up?

if (mail("this is a subject","this is a body", "you@yoursite.com"))
{
echo "Worked!";
}
else
{
echo "Sumpin's wrong";
}

put that in a page and visit it (change it to your address).  If something is wrong, it means your server isn’t set up.  Normally my advice would then be to contact your webhost and ask them how to get it set up.  I have absolutely no idea how to set it up on godaddy’s dedicated servers.  Bamboo aside, can you not send email from your website via PHP?  This isn’t a Bamboo issue, frankly you may want to get a professional host who can manage these things.

It worked… is there a easy way to add mail() to work with Bamboo?

It uses mail() by default.  You shouldn’t need to do anything, just delete the email.php config file.  If you want, open up application/controllers/invoices.php and look for this line

// die($this->email->print_debugger()); // this line for debugging

and uncomment it by deleting the first to “//” from it.

And hey, if they works, maybe you could try seeing if the “donate” link works in your installation wink
