proc_open is a PHP function and it has been disabled by your host. It will need to be enabled or you will need to send emails using an SMTP server instead.

Would it work via a email such as gmail instead of the @sitedomain?

If you are using their gmail apps it should work well. If using a "personal" gmail address, then odds are you will run into their email limitations for sending before to long.
