    I have been testing my contact form 7 and it submits (it says the email was submitted successfully) but I never receive the email. I have even changed the email address in the settings but I still don’t receive it. Any ideas? Early today a friend was trying to contact me and I received her emails with the subject line completed but the form was blank. My blog is thismakesthat.com.

    Thanks!

  • Your email is probably being seen as spam somewhere in the email process. This is usually due to email headers (in particular the From email address used) or email content.

    Important to remember there are a lot of places, other than your spam folder, where emails can be trapped as spam.

    See Contact Form 7 Email Issues – this links to a much more comprehensive article which also covers emails being considered spam.

    See also Contact Form 7 not Sending Emails which explains in more detail the main reasons for failed Contact Form 7 email deliveries and offers some possible solutions.

    Thank you so much for sending those links! Apparently there is a known issue when using Yahoo mail. I had to make a few tweaks and use a different email address but it’s working now. What a relief! Again, I appreciate you responding to my question.
