1. Which Limesurvey version do you use?

2. What did you set as email method at the global settings -> email?

3. what did you enter as admin email address at global settings?

4. What did you set as admin email address for the survey you are testing?

wawansur, this sounds like a server configuration issue. Which kind of server do you use? If it's Apache, have a look at email settings in php.ini.
