   Mmight be a PHP limitaton at your host with sending mail via PHP. This has been recommended before: WP mail SMTP

   hi

   thank you for this suggestion. in moment i will check it, but are you sure that it is server limitation?

   as i wrote, when i put for example in footer of theme:

   <?php mail('addres@gmail.com', 'subject', 'content'); ?>

   it sends email when page is loaded. same with wp_mail()

   Don't know. I think WP sends registration email with a more complex PHP method that does get broken by some servers. Other threads in the forums suggest Wp Mail SMTP as a fix for registration emails not sending.

   Hello, songdogtech, and kkarpieszuk.
   I have that issue too. I've installed the WPMAIL SMTP and works fine, because now i receive an email every time new user registerd on my blog. But the users never get the mail with password.
   ¿Any idea? I saw register function in wp-login.php uses php POST method. So, how can i configure it to use SMTP?
   regards

   i fix it using same email on wp general options and wp-smtp with my domain. I mean, not hotmail or another free mail, just user@mydomain.com
   and works fine.
   thx anyway
