I have called godaddy and had them disable the host side completely so that google is the only thing talking to wp.

Which should confirm that wp mail is not working, and it is no longer a host issue.

deactivating woo does not seem to help.

It has been suggested to me by an IT friend that there may be trouble with the SMTP from google communicating with the settings in wordpress.

Was able to pull up the error log in the root FTP directory, to find… an entire notepad file filled with them from Today. all related to streams failing to open in woocommerce.php.

they seem to stem from here :
/usr/lib/php:/usr/local/lib/php
&
include_once(includes/class-wc-customer.php)

I have, literally no idea, what this means.

A Woocommerce update prompted this morning.
Upon trying to install the woo update I got stuck with the “maintenance mode” error screen that won’t allow dashboard or homepage access.

Restored last night’s backup and everything seemed fine – except emails stopped working.

Updated again – received the same error. Renamed .maintenance in the root directory to .bak so it would allow me in. Everything is fine again – woo updated, and everything appears to be working with the exception of email still.

New user registrations don’t go to admin email, nor to the user, and no new order emails go out or are received.

This could be the case. However when I first set everything up last night it was working – emails were sending fine until this morning after update / backup debacle.
