Error 405 Not Allowed when trying to send test message.

I had looked at it and nothing looked relevant..

It looks like you are getting a time-out error. Do you have any mx record configured? Is it pointing to your gmail account?

Yes, the email works fine when I log into gmail and try to use it…

I also have other email addresses that I actively use with that domain name so I know it works fine…

I’m having this same issue with the 405 error after test email and comment submission. any luck?

nope, I had to find a different plugin to use because this one didn’t work and was getting no support…

Good luck!

@james, which plugin did you switch to?

I had to change which email server I was using too. I am no longer using gmail for it and I am using the WP-Mail-SMTP plugin to access the new SMTP server I’m using…

Good luck!

Thanks James, I tried that plugin and it had the same issue. The Postman plugin worked though for anyone else looking to switch!

I found an easier solution https://my.bluehost.com/cgi/help/153
I removed any plugin I had for smtp. And just set the address [email protected]
No need to use any other plugin.
