How is the e-mail being handled, is it in your receipt page also? Or at
what point in the process? What, if any, mail is received? What mail
method is being used? I used to get some errors when sending too many
mail in the order process, which was improved slightly by using
Net::SMTP, and then cured by using RPC mode.

Try to add some debugging statements, and use what you know to find out
exactly where it fails. There was an excellent thread a couple weeks
ago, 'one store gone nuts' - where debugging was discussed in-depth.

Good luck,

JT
