If sending from user@serviceprovider.tld to user@serviceprovider.tld the server may refuse to post an email, as the mail user shouldn't need to post mail to themselves.
no. mail-server can deliver from sender to sender. it's absolutely normal behaviour.
Also - check that the address involved in sending is not blocked by an RBL used by the receiving server.

David, php use system mail-client (mailer), that works on webserver, for example, sendmail or simple ssmtp. If you have tuned up mailer you can set mail settings of you abantecart to "mail". Usually hosting servers already tuned up correctly.
If not - use "ssmtp" and set parameters.
testing mail-server before sending is not good idea. That process takes a lot of time. We should run multithread process for order changing, in other case customer will wait.
so.. i just tested mailing..
1. enable alert mails for new orders in setting->mail
2. When you change order status check "notify customer"
All emails was sent, after order confirm (to customer and owner), after order status to customer. All works right.
