Emails not sending.

    I installed the plugin, set up my form, and used it on my page. When I submit the form, it is supposed to send an email copy to myself and the recipient. But, it’s not. Is there something I have to do to configure the email? I have selected which email to send it from already…

    Dear terrythebest2001,
    First of all please make sure the email is not filtered to the spam or junk email folder.
    – Try using another email address (preferably one with the same domain as your site)
    – WordPress uses PHP mail. Perhaps your hosting does not have sendmail enabled. Please contact your hosting provider.
    – Alternatively, you can use SMTP, which should always work.

    You can use this plugin for example: http://wordpress.org/plugins/wp-smtp/
    Setting up an external SMTP server, such as GMail should work. But GMail requires authentication.

    Mailer: smtp
    SMTP Authentication: yes
    SMTP Security: SSL
    SMTP Port: 465
    SMTP Username: your gmail full address
    SMTP Password: your gmail password
    SMTP Host: smtp.gmail.com
