Since short I had the problem with MAMP that it doesn't let WordPress send emails to me. After reading the article about Installing Wordpress on Snow Leopard I tried this, but still have the same problem.
For example:
When I add a new user, that user will get an email with all the details, but the emails aren't send.
It worked before and now when I create a new Blog with WordPress I also don't get the email (confirmation that you started a blog).
But when I look in the Terminal it tells me I've got mail. I can view the mails and those are the mails that couldn't be send. Looks like something is wrong with PHPmailer?

Your new WordPress site has been successfully set up at:
http://localhost:8888/link from site
You can log in to the administrator account with the following information:
Username: user
Password: The password you chose during the install.
We hope you enjoy your new site. Thanks!

Somebody can tell me what's going on?
This line:

...suggests to me that Wordpress may not be configured quite right. MAMP, unfortunately, ships with Apache set to use port 8888 by default IIRC, whereas Apache as built into OS X will use port 80 (which is the Internet standard http port).
To view your blog from a local Web browser, what URL do you use? http://localhost, or http://localhost:8888?
If you go to http://localhost to view your Wordpress site, then you may want to check the URLs listed on the Wordpress General Settings page to make sure they don't have :8888 appended to the end of them.
Forgot to mention that this email was when I had MAMP installed. That's why it says localhost:8888.
With the removal of MAMP and the setup from the article here at Applefritter the mail won't show in the terminal. I'm not sure where they went.
