Email to User Not Sending

EBD sends the email itself using PHP and it sets the From: itself. You have a couple of choices:

1. Most people encountering that problem install the Postman SMTP plugin by Jason Hendriks. Everyone using that plugin has been able to get things working, so that’s your best bet.

2. Alternatively, you can install https://www.ads-software.com/plugins/custom-sender-for-email-before-download/ which will let you set the From: value in the outgoing email. You will need to set it to a real account associated with your domain name (or to a real account on the system doing the sending .. it kind of depends on how you’re configured) in order to get the email to make it through to certain providers like Yahoo.

You could also set up the various spam-related email things like SPF, Domainkeys, DKIM, etc

Found the error. As soon as you use other variables (i replace Your-email etc. with client-email etc., which makes more sense actually), it does not work anymore. so there seems to be something hardwired…

anyway, solved ??

hi dscha — ok, good to hear you got it working by changing to “your-email” on there. It looks like upgrading to WordPress 4.4 has impacted some people that were not using “your-email” for the field name. A few others have seen that. The crazy thing is, not only do I not understand how WP 4.4 could cause that, I also don’t understand how it ever worked before for folks who weren’t using “your-email”. Anyway, I’m just glad it’s working now…
