Not receiving email notifications for comments

– Ask your hosting provider what’s going on (e.g., if any of their SMTP filtering rules have changed recently; If for some reason your notification emails have been simply queued. etc.)
– Also ask them if you need to setup SMTP. If you do, then you can use a plugin for it, for example: https://www.ads-software.com/plugins/postman-smtp/

Agreed, I personally used Mailgun. While you need to do a bit of DNS work the time I spent dealing with email on a shared host was ridiculous!

I recently starting having the same problem.

@firequartz,

If the troubleshooting already posted made no difference for you, then, as per the Forum Welcome, please post your own topic.

Thanks Tara. I’m quite new to WordPress and not very tech savvy – do you have an online tutorial / FAQ sheet regarding SMTP, what it is and how to set up a plugin for it?

Thanks.

Try the plugin Tara mentioned originally https://www.ads-software.com/plugins/postman-smtp/

It has one of the best step-by-step setups I’ve seen in a plugin.

Thanks all, this has resolved the issue ??

Glad to know it ??

You’re welcome!
