HostGator Mail Function PHP Mail

Initially I had written:

So I'm checking out HostGator's hosting solutions and the only thing I'm having an issue with so far is using the PHP mail() function. I will certainly update this note if I find anything.

Now the Solution

My base problem was that I was testing an address @blueshift7.com on the new blueshift7.com server. However, I was not using this new host as my mail server. Instead I was using Google's Hosted solution.

I was able to solve the problem by going to the MX Entry section of CPanel and changing the MX records to what they already stated in my DNS records (aspmx.l.google.com).

Once the server knew that it wasn't managing the mail then it sent it on to where it was supposed to go. Problem solved.
