I just installed VBulletin 3 on a new server. None of the email functions are working. I've tried it with and without the -f option. Can someone help.

Try the email diagnostics in the Admin CP and report back the results:
Admin CP -> Imports & Maintenance -> Diagnostics -> Email
Also in the Admin CP, open the Server Settings and Optimization Options section and turn on the Public phpinfo() Display Enabled setting. Then provide the URL to your forums. This may help us troubleshoot this problem.Steve Machol, former vBulletin Customer Support Manager (and NOT retired!)

Here is what I got
SMTP:localhostsendmail_from:[email protected]_path:/usr/sbin/sendmail -t -i
No errors were returned while attempting to send the email. Check [email protected] shortly to confirm you've received the email. If you don't receive the email, try sending the test to a different address. If that fails, check your mail server's configuration.

I have sent an email to my webhost to see if it is a problem on the server side but haven't heard back from them.
Is there anything else I can check on my side?Comment

Did you get the test email? Assuming the sendmail path in your phpinfo page is accurate then there's nothing there to indicate a problem.
I assume you have enabled the email options, right? if so you will need to view the mail logs on the server to see what happened to those emails. Once vB sends it to PHP it's in the hands of the server. If you are on a shared server you may need to ask your host to look through the logs for you.Steve Machol, former vBulletin Customer Support Manager (and NOT retired!)

This is what the tech guys at my webhosting company had to say...
There are lot of mails in the mail queue wating for delivering that were
blocked by bounced messages in the mail server. We are deleting these bounced
messages now.The mails will be delivered soon after its completion.Please retry
after few hours and let us know if the issue persists.
I think what caused this is that for the past 6 months, they have been getting spam/junk emails from where I used this server a long time ago...Comment
