Theme My Login doesn't send confirmation mails (4 posts)

    I'm using theme my login for my site and it's so excellent! But the email confirmation is sometimes sent and sometimes not. Why is this?

    The only reason I want this feature is to protect myself with spam so a captcha would be just as good.

    My new user and admin registration emails aren't working.

    The only email that is working for me is 'registration denied', which seems to be on email accounts which I've already used in my testing - so I've tried other email accounts but without success.

    I've also tried unique email accounts for 'admin' email address. Also checked spam box.

    Can anyone help?

    I'm running v6.1.2 in WP 3.1 (wasn't working in 3.0.5 either so I tried an upgrade).

    The standard WP new user registration email is still being sent to admin.

    ARe you using any custom TML functions via theme-my-login-custom.php?

    Not at the moment of writing the post. However, so far it looks like it has been resolved. *hopefully doesn't jinx it*

    It seemed like it was my host that blocked the mails as spam. I noticed when a mail was bounced. I think they have fixed it since it's now working. However, I also noticed that placing in the from field <*mail@mail.com*> let the mail slip through. It was the * symbols that did it. Weird.

    Btw, something I would love to see incorporated in the theme my login plugin would be a captcha for registration. A simple pretty little thing that just blocks most of the membership spammers.

    Either way, I've went through so many plugins and theme-my-login is BY FAR the best. Amazing! You rock!
