Not receiving warning emails

So you’re not getting the emails sent out to you that you’re expecting?

Hi Paul,

Followed directions to the ‘T’. Test message was received successfully.

Now, however, when I send a regular email via Outlook to my email address on mydomain.com, the Simple Firewall Plugin responds:

From: Affecteddomain :: WordPress Simple Firewall [[email protected]] on
behalf of AffectedDomain :: WordPress Simple Firewall [[email protected]] ****
To: [email protected] ****

WordPress Simple Firewall has blocked a page visit to your site. Log details for this visitor are below: – IP Address: 23.229.205.102 – Firewall Block Response: Visitor connection was killed with wp_die() and a message. You can look up the offending IP Address here: https://ip-lookup.net/?ip=23.229.205.102

The View Audit Trail reports:
Same error message as originally reported:
There was an attempt to send an email using the “wp_mail” function. It was sent to “[email protected]” with the subject “Firewall Block Email Alert: https://www.affecteddomain.com”.

So now what? Any suggestions?

There is no connection between sending an email from outlook, and accessing your site, and the simple firewall sending an email. These things are all unrelated.
