   Hello,

   i searched for several mail()-function errors but couldn't find the answer up to now..

   My problem is, no matter which plugin i use, if it has an option to send an email to an adress, it never arrives there.
   In this case, i am trying to get Contact Form 7 to work..
   I want to note that it is not a problem of the plugin, it doesn't work with other plugins too..

   My ISP does provide mail() and it is working, as i wrote a php script using mail() for testing proposes.. the mail has arrived.

   Either, i do not get an error or something, there is no feedback (positiv nor negativ) from WordPress..

   Any suggestions?

   Kind regards,
   john

   Don't you even get them as SPAM? That's really common.

   I always use WP-SMTP to override any mail() call by an SMTP server. It's more reliable in terms of SPAM and mailing, in my opinion.

   Hey,

   there is nothing in my spam..

   As i said, its weird, because mail() is actually working jsut fine..

   Ok, my solution..

   Since Contact Form 7 (and propably all other plugins) using @wp_mail() as mail gateway, i changed that back to mail() and everything is working fine..

   look like the wp_mail() gateway doesn't work with my wordpress..
   cant figure out where to find that class so i could change it there.. whatever.. thanks...
