My Comment Email Notification Doesn’t Work

  • I have went into my setting/Discussion and checked the box for email notifications when someone leaves a comment, yes I am the author and yes my email is in my user profile and yet I still do not get an email and never have. I am the Admin and Author and every time I get a comment I never know unless I just happen to go to my Dashboard.

  • WordPress uses the PHP mail function to send emails generated by WordPress or any third party plugin. However, many WordPress hosting servers are not configured to use the mail function.

    Additionally, in order to reduce spam, your email provider often checks whether your email is originating from the location it claims to be originating from. For example, if your email server is yahoo.com but your email claims to be sent from your website’s domain, chances are your form notification will be blocked before it even reaches the spam folder.

    Would you know if there is a plug-in to help with this or just deal with the fact I will never get comment email notifications and check my Dashboard everyday?
