Hello.

I am presently having an issue with my WordPress install. You can check it out here: http://www.legacydj.biz/wordpress/

In short, no mail is sent from WordPress. I've been using a plugin to create the contact form (try the Contact link), and while it says the mail has been sent, it has not. I also tried a password recovery email solely from WordPress, and the mail never came.

Any ideas on a resolution? I've scoured both the Wiki, the forums, and a myriad of other LunarPages-centric sources and have come up dry. Thanks!

Since you are on an LPCP server which uses a separate mail server, you will need to use SMTP to send email from your script instead of the default php mail().. http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/wp-mail-smtp/ may help.

Thanks, katrina, but unfortunately this did not solve the problem. While the SMTP Plug-in is configured properly, any test emails sent never seem to arrive - I've tried with my own GMail address, someone else's University email, and then to an email on my LunarPages account. Every address never received the test message.

Odd, everything is working fine now. I think it might've been a local internet issue. Thanks again katrina! You rock Smile

WordPress is notorious for sending email inconsistently. All the scripts and settings can be correct but if a hook or action doesn't fire correctly, no email goes out. I've seen it come and go on my installations over the past couple of major releases.
