Emails to Admin not being received

I have the same problem.
Two independant sites will not send any mails – none of them is on Godaddy.

Could this be associated with the new php update?

This is not a problem with the plugin as it has to do with the server. I suggest you to look into using Mandrill which is a free service to send your emails through WordPress. I used this when the default server had trouble sending emails.

yea, i figured it out, respectyoda is right, is the host server, apparently when you make an account at godaddy, if you added an “email” account on that server, not a outlook 365, the regular email that uses the server addresses, is the email you should use, so apparently my “server email” wasn’t even setup, i had to set it up, and make an account, then i proceeded to use that account as my “admin” email on my wordpress panel, then added the email to the ninja plugin and voila! e-mail works, i even got it to work on my phone! so, my suggestion for anyone with this problem, go to your “cPanel” at godaddy and log in, then proceed to find the “email” section, keep scrolling down till you find it, then select the “account” icon, it will open the “accounts” page, and theres 4 large icons, called “create account, “web access” etc, at the bottom it says “email accounts” if there’s no email accounts there, then you need to make one, click the “create account” icon and proceed to make a new account, once you got it setup, you should now be able to see the account under the “email accounts” section, now go to your wordpress panel and add that account as your “new admin account” and use it also on your contact form plugins, it should now work!

@wolfnuka, I am glad you got it all sorted out. Yes, there has to be an email address configured for the server as MX records have to exist for emails to be sent through the server that hosts the site.

Can you please mark the topic resolved if you don’t mind? Thanks. ??

My solution was maybe a little simpler. I host with a couple of different companies. None are GoDaddy.

I just switched my php version from 5.5 to 5.6 which is recommended for the current version of wordpress 4.3.1. Admin emails are coming through fine now no matter what admin email I enter.
