Still getting safe browsing alerts

    A client of mine is getting safe browser alerts every day. The plugin is on the latest version (1.4.3) and has been uninstalled for about a month. I checked the headers of the email, and it looks like it’s coming from a Godaddy server even though my client isn’t hosting their site with GoDaddy. Not sure why the email would still be sent? Do these emails go out from a separate server that is not their site?

    Hi @tajroyer

    sorry the late response!

    If the plugin is uninstalled within WordPress it removes the scheduled cron job which is triggering the notification email. But even if you delete it via FTP and the cron job is still there, the called function is not there anymore, so this wouldn’t work too.

    If you get the mails from the “wrong” server, than the MX record could be changed to a GoDaddy server or there is a test/dev installation still on a GoDaddy server triggering those mails.

    We are using the core mail function which is using the PHPMailer from WordPress itself and is sending the mails from the webserver (if there is no SMTP plugin used and configured).

    Hope this helps finding the cause for those mails!

    All the best
    Torsten
