Hi SPViradiya
From the note, I understand php mail function not working in Lightsail Linux Bitnami WordPress, you tried to install sendmail but still not working. Please correct me if my understanding is wrong.
Please note AWS does not support Wordpress or PHP, see here [1]. I recommend not to use "sendmail" for sending emails. Amazon limits the number of the outgoing emails from the instances. "In order to maintain the quality of EC2 addresses for sending email, we enforce default limits on the amount of email that can be sent from EC2 accounts". I suggest to use a SMTP configuration with an email provider. You can find how to configure mail() function in a LAMP to send emails through a GMail account in the link below: http://wiki.bitnami.com/Components/PHP#How_to_send_email_via_external_SMTP_account 3.5k In the WordPress case, you can find a guide to configure with a plugin. You can find more info at[2]. You may also need to involve a Dev/SysAdmin.
I hope it helps.
