it's not a good thing that they're still down so most certainly they are the probable cause. Send a ticket to support:

i use simplemachines and i used to be able to run email via the php script but that doesnt work . i have set up email to use smtp which is a bit slower i guess. However configuring another port for mail rather than 26 i also have been able to overcome a lot of blocking from sites such as hotmail or yahoo..so all my mail gets through on messageboards.

not sure if vbulletin gives those options php script vs smtp but perhaps check it out

I am running vBulletin as well and I am also having mail issues. I'm on a dedicated server. How do I sent up a smtp mail system to work around the php mail issues.
