Did you update to Joomla 3.2 and then when trying to upload a new blog post to your site or something that caused your website to "SendMail" you got the following error message?

The mail function has been temporarily disabled on this site, please try again later.

We got the same thing. Here is what you do. Go into your Joomla Administration panel and go to GLobal Configuration. Then click on your server settings tab and then under the Mail Settings section you will see two buttons. More than likely you have yes selected for sending mail via php.

Turn this to NO and then click save. Once that has saved, switch it back to yes. Then try whatever you did to get the error message again and this should have resolved it.

You can also try toggling back and forth between the PHP, SendMail and SMTP settings and clicking save as you switch thru. This seems to have fixed the problem on ALL of our sites we recently upgraded to Joomla 3.2.

Hope this helps!
