DO NOT USE ANY SMTP PLUGINS FOR GODADDY HOSTED WEBSITES.
Godaddy has a closed hosting system.
They do not permit you to send any email from the hosting server to email accounts that are not hosted by GoDaddy. All email sent from their hosting servers is forced to use mail(). You absolutely cannot send form or website admin email via SMTP.More Details in this thread:

Godaddy has a closed hosting system.
They do not permit you to send any email from the hosting server to email accounts that are not hosted by GoDaddy. All email sent from their hosting servers is forced to use mail(). You absolutely cannot send form or website admin email via SMTP.All SMTP traffic attempting to use Ports 25, 465 or 587 is automatically trapped by their proxy server. If the TO: address does not match a domain hosted at GoDaddy, the email is blocked. The sad thing is that their Tier 1 support people don’t even understand this security feature or comprehend how it works.
SUPER SIMPLE SOLUTION IF YOU KEEP YOUR SITES AT GODADDY:
If the email for the website domain is hosted at GoDaddy you need to change the FROM address, for your contact form and the email address used in WordPress Settings, to a mailbox or forwarding alias using that same domain.If you want the form or admin email to be delivered to an email account that is not hosted by GoDaddy, setup an email forwarder using a domain hosted at GoDaddy. We have a .net version of a domain that only has forwarders setup to send mail to the .com mail hosted on another service.
The final solution for flawless website email delivery is to make sure your GoDaddy hosted website is sending email through a GoDaddy hosted mailbox or forwarder.
See this post about blocked outgoing web server ports.
WordPress post-6683898@marximusmg – your EC2 instance is sending, not receiving email, so there is no need to open an incoming port. If you are using an SSL connection to send mail through nsMail, try using the correct port 465.
@belindajohnstone and @andrezasv – your email is being delivered properly so don’t blame the plugin. You need to fix your domain SPF record so Hotmail won’t flag the email as spam. You can also whitelist the contact form FROM address so Hotmail/Yahoo/AOL etc won’t automatically delete the messages or flag them as spam.
When you can’t send via SMTP from your website server, you should check with your hosting provider. Many providers block ports 25, 465, 587 so their webservers cannot send outgoing email.
GoDaddy has a really strict policy about email sent from their web hosting accounts. If you try to use an SMTP plugin, the SMTP connection will be blocked.
If you use the standard PHP mail() all mail will be trapped by Godaddy and redirected through their SMTP servers. Messages will be blocked if the email FROM: address doesn’t match the website domain.
Don’t forget to add an accurate SPF record to your domain if you are sending email from your webserver.
That is a common item in WordPress. It happens when you don’t enter a First and Last name for a user profile. It happens with other utilities too.
Nope. The History section is different now. It just has a list of the entries, no search or filtering capability (drop down selection) at all.
WordPress 4.0.1 and 4.1
Simple History 2.0.4BOOO!
He fixed it by REMOVING the ability to filter the entries.I’m disappointed that we can’t filter the entries in version 2.0.4. This is so difficult to use now because we have to click through dozens of pages to find specific entries. Please put the filtering capability back in.
This is a common problem with Godaddy hosting accounts after they, very recently, implemented a ModSecurity configuration change. Your IP address is being flagged as a bot. You’ll have to get GoDaddy support to whitelist your IP address until they fix the ruleset.
Login to your GoDaddy hosting account and turn on error logs to get a 7 day sample. Once the error logs are active, try logging in to your admin dashboard. Review the logs and you’ll see an entry similar to this:
ModSecurity: Access denied with connection close (phase 3). Pattern match “block” at TX:evalaction. [file “/web/httpd2/modsecurity.d/activated_rules /modsecurity_gd_07_post_guardian.conf”] [line “32”] [id “10704”] [msg “BLOCKED – Bot detected! Score: 33”]
