confirmation email is send from my local host registration of a user but mail will not display in there email account?

wp_mail uses php mail() function, which does not work on localhost. Since SMTP server does not exist on localhost.

For mail() to work on localhost you’ll have to setup SMTP on your local server.
Or use some SMTP plugin which will bypass `mail()’ and connect to SMTP.
