Hi Experts,
Recently I install a WordPress blog and configured the Contact Form 7 plugin well, but I am not receiving any emails.
Can you help me?
Thank you.
Hello James,
There could be several reasons why emails sent from the Contact Form 7 plugin in WordPress are not being received. Here are a few possible solutions you can try:
-
Check the spam folder: Sometimes, emails sent from Contact Form 7 can end up in the recipient's spam folder. Ask the recipient to check their spam folder and mark the email as not spam if it is found there.
-
Check the email configuration: Make sure that the email address and settings in the Contact Form 7 plugin are correct. Go to the Contact Form 7 settings and double-check that the email address and other details are correct.
-
Use a different email address: If the recipient's email address is a free email service like Yahoo, Gmail, or Hotmail, try using a different email address for the recipient. Free email services can sometimes block emails sent from WordPress.
-
Use an SMTP plugin: Consider using an SMTP plugin, like WP Mail SMTP or Easy WP SMTP, to send emails from WordPress. These plugins can help ensure that emails are sent from a reliable email server and can reduce the chance of emails being marked as spam.
-
Contact the hosting provider: If none of the above solutions work, contact your hosting provider to see if there are any email issues on their end that may be causing the problem.
Personally, I use WP Mail SMTP with Contact Form 7, and it works fine.
I hope It will help you.
