Contact Form emails going to Wrong Address

    I’ve noticed that the contact form I’m using (standard jetpack one) is sending it to the admin email address. When I changed this in the settings for the contact form (add contact form > email notifications) it seems that no email is received.

    Is there a way to fix this? Spent all morning going around in circles trying to resolve this, but for some reason it’s proving to be an absolute nightmare.

    I’ve even changed the admin’s email to the address I want messages to go to and that doesn’t seem to fix anything. :-/

    Could you post the contact form shortcode here, as it appears in your post editor?

    Thanks!

    [contact-form subject='[hello company'][contact-field label='Name' type='name' required='1'/][contact-field label='Email' type='email' required='1'/][contact-field label='Website' type='url'/][contact-field label='Comment' type='textarea' required='1'/][/contact-form]

    This one works fine, but goes to the wrong address (goes to admins original one. If I change the admin’s address to the one I want it to go to it won’t be received).

    This is the code if I put the email addres in to the one I want it to go to.

    [contact-form to='[email protected]' subject='Hello company'][contact-field label='Name' type='name' required='1'/][contact-field label='Email' type='email' required='1'/][contact-field label='Website' type='url'/][contact-field label='Comment' type='textarea' required='1'/][/contact-form]

    Could you try to use a plugin like this one to make sure emails are properly sent out of your WordPress installation, when using that email address?

    If that doesn’t help, could you try using a third email address, using a third-party email provider like Gmail or Yahoo, and let me know if you experience similar issues?

    Thanks!
