You did, you posted it right above.
The code provided, as I said, stores the emails in the store folder -> only.
So phpBB sends emails and you can now roll-back those code changes.

You will need to make sure your mailserver and php config are setup correctly, as said before.

Sendmail service is up and running on the server, and emails go through without any issues:
Apr 25 14:37:44 ns1 sendmail[47092]: 13PEbhpT047092: to==?UTF-8?B?c2JlbmdlMTIzNA==?= , ctladdr=[email protected] (48/48), delay=00:00:01, xdelay=00:00:00, mailer=relay, pri=31554, relay=[127.0.0.1] [127.0.0.1], dsn=2.0.0, stat=Sent (13PEbiUf047094 Message accepted for delivery)

Most likely, a root cause is either in misconfigured phpbb email form or in modules involved in processing email through phpbb. php() works without problem.

Check with your host that there are no locks or suspensions on the board domain mail added by your host. PHP mail() can be working fine but hosts often place restrictions citing spam for one, it’s happened to me in the past. Also, are there any errors in the server logs pertaining to email?
