wpMandrill worked may be cause you were using their HTTP API to send emails. We’re currently working on a similar implementation which will work on generic ports (80/443).

Meanwhile if you can open the port(s), it should work. It might be blocked in your firewall (though i’ve seen in such cases it generally says connection refused or connection timed out depending on firewall settings). Can you please check if it’s blocked in your firewall?

Also, you can try this in your server. Try running it from the same user that runs your php processes.

nc -vz -w 3 smtp.sparkpostmail.com 587

Ok, it makes sense now. Thanks for posting in detail. It looks like you do not have permission to use port 587. If you’re in a shared hosting environment, you can ask your hosting provider.

Also you can try selecting Port 2525 from settings page. In some hosts, it may be open even though 587 is closed.

Hello @gabeyoder

Can you please give us little more info like where and when you get this error?

SparkPost plugin doesn’t rely on any other plugins. I believe problem is somewhere else? Can you also try after re-activating the SparkPost plugin (deactivate it first and then activate). Also make sure you’ve checked ‘Enable’ on.

Thanks for your info. I wanted to verify your contact form settings are not same as mandrill settings.

In my test, I’ve found contact form is not using it’s settings rather the settings in mandrill plugin is used.

@perohen

What is the sender info in your mandrill plugin settings?

Thanks for the clarification. That makes sense. I’m investigating these now.

@perohen
I’ll look into contact form 7 and get back to you. Just a question,

(I can’t even automatically reply, because “Reply-To” header is added two times and that’s why Thunderbird ignores it)

Is it same value for both ?

Thanks

Thanks for your follow up.

1. I can’t tell why it’s not working because I can’t see the plugin’s source code. Seems it’s not in the plugin repo (please provide link if it’s published somewhere else). If so, I could check how it’s setting the sender information.

2. Almost same reply. But it may also be blocked/throttled in server level if you’re sending too many emails in short time. Check if the script generated two emails or not, if there is any error while generate the 2nd email.

If you’ve related error, log etc. I would be happy to look into.

A new version is released which uses filter to set sender name/email. If the gravity form’s filter priority is set properly (to be executed after ours) it should be working fine now. Please give it a try and let us know the result.

It’s not intended and a fix to use filter instead of directly overriding is on the way.

Hi,
I am expecting a few things that may need much work :P.

1. It should go full OOP!
2. review system for plugins
3. centralize bug reporting (using trac) for plugins! I mean we can report bugs for any plugins on plugin repository rather than third party site or support forum!

Thanks

no help? ??

hello Michael,
Thanks for your reply. but how to define it? i see the links says this feature is introduced by WordPress 2.5+. so it is a core function. isn’t it?

thanks
