What could be all of the possible reasons why the emails are not being sent out from my Reminder list?
The installations seems to have worked fine, but the emails are being delivered.

I don't understand: The e-mails have or haven't been sent?

Oops, I apologize for the typo.
They are NOT being sent to the email addresses that I set.

Is the mail() function active on your webhost?

I asked them that and this was their reply.....
The mail() function should be activated. If not you can activate it if you choose. You have administrative control over your server. Our Dedicated and Virtual Dedicated servers are sold as unmanaged servers with the understanding that the client will be able to administrate their own server. In the case of the Dedicated or Virtual Dedicated Linux systems, understanding of Unix system administration is recommended. If you are not familiar with this, you may wish to hire an administrator or consultant. As such, you will be responsible for performing any software upgrades to the applications and daemons installed on the server.
If they suggest that I should activate it myself, how do I do that?
What hosting services do have the mail() function activated? Can you recommend any?

Better listen to them:

There are many hosts with mail() function activated, just do a search on the web, you'll certainly find one.
// if your email succesfully sent
if($sentmail){
echo "Email Has Been Sent .";
}
else {
echo "Cannot Send Email ";
}
If you are using an unmanaged server though, as Aikon said, you need to do some reading otherwise your server could be wide open to attack if it is not configured correctly.
