I really do not believe the email confirmation problem has anything to do with MySQL.

1. Do you have an SMTP server?
2. Did you enter a good working email address in your php.ini file?
3. Did you also enter a good SMTP server in your php.ini?
4. In the phpBB2 admin screens, did you try your SMTP server there?

The email confirmation problem is common amongst phpBB2. Check the files I told you to check and in the phpBB2 admin screen I believe under configuration at the bottom is a section in regards to your SMTP server.

Good luck, I only checked out the first two of your screenshots and MySQL is running fine. The problem is elsewhere and I advise to look there. Good luck :)

I will be unable to help much over the IM since I've uninstalled phpBB2. I haven't played with it in some time and if you know what an SMTP server is your problem is 99% solved. You just have to figure out where to input the SMTP information.

Do you have an SMTP Server (How do you *send* your email)?
Where did you enter the info (php.ini, phpBB admin, etc)?

Mere clues but you can solve it... Its pretty easy and you'll probably kick yourself in the butt when you find out... Good luck ;)

PS. Sorry, but I won't be on the IM today and not for a while. Maybe later on tonight 8 or 9 EST and definitely tomorrow early...
