Ohhh, you’re right James! I had to install a Feedburner plugin or something when I downloaded my new theme.

Thank you again, for all of your help! I will uninstall it temporarily and if I am getting the same result I will contact Feedburner support ??

James, thank you for your detailed response! That makes me feel better that the response I got is normal. Yes, it is for maybemeghan.com, but unfortunately I have no idea how to make my blog not re-direct to feedburner. My knowledge on all of this stuff is not that sophisticated yet. I use feedburner for e-mail subscriptions, that is all. Is there a way to prevent the site from re-directing to feedburner without messing up the e-mail subscriptions?

Tim, thank you for responding as well! Yes, it’s that specific feed validator website that is telling me I have errors. I’ve been doing lots of research on how this all works since I own a blog now, and I’ve noticed that a lot of people are having problems based on their feed being invalid or showing errors. That is the reason that I wanted to make sure my feed was valid, so that if there was an error I would find out now instead of later on down the road.

Thank you Pioneer Valley Web Design! The e-mails finally came through… so I think you were right in saying that it may take some time since it was a new account.

I really appreciate your quick and detailed reply. Thank you for taking the time to help me! I will definitely review some information about Comment Spam. Thank you for that tip!

Thank you for your response!

What is SMTP?

I contacted my host and they had me set up an email account with them, and that seems to have solved the problem a little bit. I received an email when one person posted a comment but not when another person posted a comment. Also, now my site doesn’t seem to be recognizing me as the admin (when I reply to a comment it shows up like a reader instead of the admin). Does anyone know how to fix that?

Ok, thank you! I will try that.
