I have installed the membership module by ajshort https://github.com/ajshort/silverstripe-memberprofiles.
I have selected to have a confirmation email sent. However, the confirmation email is not being sent. If I select the security tab, and then "resend confirmation email", that works. Any idea why it is not working?

The problem was that I had "admin" as the email address of the administrator. You must have an email address specified for the admin account. Also, if you select "Require registration approval by an administrator" on the Member Profile Page Behavior tab, then an email will first be sent to the administrator. Once that is approved, the new member will be sent an email if you select "Require email validation to activate an account" on the Email tab. If you select "Send a confirmation email after a user registers", then that will not work correctly.
