Welcome to (Web) development. You need to debug (usually a linear process), and you should also determine when a vendor can help you to debug.

Debug chain:

  1. Can PHP send mail? There are several mail-with-PHP testing scripts out there; here's one.
    1. No: STOP. work with your host to determine the issue
    2. Yes: PROCEED to 2
  2. Can Magento send email? There are several ways to test this in general. Here's an extension which does this.
    1. No: You need to find out why. This probably requires a developer's help.
    2. No: Is it really being sent but getting flagged as junk?
    3. No: Still might be a hosting issue.
    4. Yes: Problem Solved!

There are lots of nuances to this which involve other troubleshooting paths, but hopefully this is helpful.
