Could not instantiate mail function : Joomla email problem
A reader contact me, asking a guide about recover forgotten password on his newly installed Joomla CMS.
I agree to help him. As usual I try to reproduce it in step by step.

Common procedure for user who forgot their password is as follow :
Click link “Forgot your password”
User will see a form where he/she must supply email address in input box.
Click Submit to proceed.
This problem came when no email server installed.
Could not instantiate mail function.

Make sure you check if all services running, simplest way to do that via command prompt.
