Comment (by DD32):

 AFAIK WordPress still uses mail() by default unless a plugin is loaded to
 replace it.

 One check which would be good is to check if mail() is disabled.

 {{{
 if( null === @mail('','','') )
 }}}

 false will be raised if mail() is available, as the email is
 incorrect.[[BR]]
 null will be raised if mail() is disabled.
