Visitor using hotmail, gmail & yahoo email address

    Hello,
    I hope someone can help me on this as it’s driving me batty.

    I have read all about the BEST PRACTICES for contact7 and what to place in the FROM, addition headers (eg sender: reply-to etc) and this seems to be something else.

    If I (pretenting to be a visitor) fill in my contact form using either a @hotmail.com, @yahoo.com or @gmail.com then I receive an error from contact7 – IE a red “Failed to send your message…” and it doesn’t send.

    If I then just change the E-Mail address to [email protected] (even using [email protected] for example) the email goes through OK.

    The weird thing is that on another VPS server that I manage the contact7 form works great to a @hotmail.com, @yahoo.com or @gmail.com address using the same version contact7, same plugins etc. IE I don’t get the error. All settings are the same in the MAIL TAB.

    IE
    TO: is [email protected]
    FROM is [email protected]

    Additional headers is;
    Sender: [email protected]
    Reply-To: [your-name] <[your-email]>

    I really hope someone can point me in the right direction on why these three email domains are not accepted through contact7 or what settings I need to change on my VPS server (using WHM / Cpanel) so these email domains are accepted.

    Thanks.

    Actually Jason I just re-installed it again to the same WP install and it worked so I don’t know what happened before – sorry about that.

    This time I could configure it and everything looks great and could configure it.

    On a side note I will definitely keep this plugin handy as I know that it will solve all email issues for those customers that emails don’t arrive or land in the junk folder no matter what. I have one of those Customers already so will use your plugin to fix it ??
