I've set up a wiki (Wikimedia to be exact) and it won't send any emails. The built-in PHP mail() function is likely not working, and to send through an actual email account I have set up requires Mail and Net_SMTP to be installed through pear. I tried to install those by SSHing into the server, but I suspect I don't have that kind of access (and for good reason!) since it error'd. The server does have pear, at least.
If anyone has any suggestions, it'd be great.

Re: Sending Email
The built in mail() function should work on all of our shared hosting machines. If you contact us directly through the Help! page in the control panel, I can check your specific machine to make sure that local SMTP service is running.
In terms of PEAR-related things, you would not be able to install those to the system, but you could do a local install to your own folder.
