@gotwf hello I am the one running the forum on my VPS and when running that cmd it returns nothing at all.
In that case you should use one of the options that does not rely on the localhost (127.0.0.1) having a sendmail binary. NodeBB has a builtin smtp or you can opt for a third party service. Else otherwise if you do wish to use localhost sendmail/smtp then you will need to install and config your vm thusly. There are pros and cons to the various options.
As mentioned by pitaj, a screenshot would be helpful.
