Okay, thanks REvans123. Seems my issue was due to the automatic update of this plugin.

Hi @reveans123,

Are you sure the plugin automatically updated your website? I visited my website this morning and saw a lot of mailbank related errors. When I examined the plugin on my server, I noticed that it had been updated recently…but I haven’t updated it myself, and auto-updates are disabled…so who updated it? I assumed I’d been HACKED and have spent the last few hours looking into this.

It would greatly reassure me if there was an auto-update of this plugin…do you have any evidence for this?

I had the same problem. WordPress is installed in the web root and I’ve chmoded two blank files, sitemap.xml and sitemap.xml.gz to 777. No joy.

However, if I build the sitemap manually the first time there is no problem and the appropriate files get written to.

I have yet to see if the plugin will automatically build the sitemap.
