When i create a new account and successfully logs in i get:
Mailer returned: Unknown error in PHP's mail() function.
This is most likely to happen due to absence of mail server i guess ?
If YES, will not be it great if you enable support of mail server with MW Vagrant itself.
If NO, what is the cause of this error?

This can happen if the required pear mailer packages are not installed automatically too. Can you please verify these requirements are satisfied ? https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Manual:$wgSMTP#Error_sending_mail:_Unknown_error_in_PHP.27s_mail.28.29_function_Mediawiki

Hmm. I didn't have pear mailer packages installed. However after installation i got this issue http://imgur.com/YOYlgtn Apart http://imgur.com/f3lVv9q this shows i have those packages installed.

Did you restart the webserver process (or even machine) between installing the packages and getting that error?
(For future reference: If possible, please paste text as text instead of images, so search engines could index it.)

You need to have PEAR installed in your vagrant machine - so that should be run after you ssh into the box. Maybe a role like 'echo' should install it automatically though.

Looks like we are missing the Debian php-pear packages that we install to provision that in production. Easy patch.

<JacksonIsaac> Hi, I am trying to confirm email and I am getting this output "Class undefined: Net_SMTP" now. Do I need to set some SMTP variable somewhere?
Mail_smtp from the PEAR/Mail package says "Requires the Net_SMTP class". Apparently we are missing another deb that provides that. I bet it is a recommended package for php-mail that we don't pick up automatically in MediaWiki-Vagrant because we have configured Apt to ignore recommended packages by default.
