Hi AJ, were these previously working and have recently gone out?

If you aren’t already using a transaction email service, then please take a look at Mandrill or Postmark App.

They will take over sending emails for your site and won’t be affected by changes by the web host to the site:

I need it to work without Postmark or mandrill. Can you please investigate?

Hi AJ,

Did you ever receive emails from your site? Not just EE. Sometimes this is a server issue. If you don’t want to use Postmark or Mandrill, you might want to try the WP Mail plugin, which routes the email via a gmail account instead of the built in mail server.

It appears that you have corrected something. I just got a bunch of emails. What was changed?

And to answer your question directly, yes, email has been totally functional on this site.

Hi AJ,

We don’t have access to your site to make any changes.

It may be that the emails were held on your server in some kind of spam check. You may have to use a plugin (such as https://wordpress.org/plugins/wp-mail-smtp/) to authenticate the outgoing email from your server. Sometimes it’s easier to just authenticate the emails using a Gmail account (https://wordpress.org/plugins/wp-mail-smtp/faq/).

Hey guys. Just decided to utilize postmark (since I already had an account) and it appears to be working. Will followup again tomorrow.

I am confused about the ‘SPF Not Verified’ section. Any thoughts?

Not sure what the issue was, but moved email to postmark and notifications seem to working. With wpmail would just work….
