New Server Root mail not working

Just had a new webserver set up, and a few programs that are supposed to email me automatically when they run (SIM, BFD, Yum, RKhunter) are not sending ANY emails.

I think it could be a few things.

1) Path error: path from root to Sendmail is not listed or listed incorrectly.
2) User error: Root is not configured as a user to send mail.
Or something else.

Regular off server POP3/smtp email works fine. I am new to Linux so pardon my complete unabashed and pitiful ignorance. Anyone had a similar issue? How do I find the problem? (Yes I have searched the forums).

Your help is appreciated.

Thanks,
Van
