Even WordPress email fails

Hi,

You need to change

To: <[email protected]>

email to what email you need to send. Ex: [email protected]

Hope this will solve your problem.

Thanks

Thank you for your quick respone panatapattu!

Alas, changing that one line from “<wordpress” to Gabino (also a valid email set up and confirmed at Godaddy) still gave a Failed to Send email message.

Always open to listening to someone who knows more than I :-).

Also I changed it to a caret, right?

Well I agree about the Godaddy issue. Contact Form 7 and Godaddy don’t play well together I discovered. Godaddy wants to sell me Office 360 to give me a “newer” interface, but I don’t see that as a very good alternative. Anyway let’s see if we can solve this issue.

I installed WP Mail SMTP but keep getting a fail during the test using these parms:

From mail: [email protected]
SMTP Host: smtpout.secureserver.net
Port: 465 or 80 tried both.
Use SSL encryption.
Yes: Use SMTP authentication.
Usernme and password completed and work manually.

Here’s the entire debug (sans password)

Test Message Sent

The result was:

bool(false)

Here’s the full debug below. If I can’t use Contact Form 7 (which I’ve used successfully for years and do like, I’ll have to use something else, so your help IS appreciated!

I have the same problem – Contact Form 7 and Godaddy email not able to send out. I installed WP SMTP – no help. If I knew where to go in and fix the code, I could get it to work.
Any help on this is appreciated!

Can you try with “No Encryption”. Because I fixed Contact Form 7 mails in Godaddy Hosting before.

The way I worked mentioned here.
