Hi Nitesh

It is not setting up mail in Koha (not KOHA,  it's a maori word, not
an acronym) but it's setting up a mta on your server that you need to
do. Koha hands its mail off to the system to deliver, unless your
server can send mail, nothing will get sent. You might want to read
one of the multitude of tutorial and faqs that are out there for
configuring a mail server.
