Comments not being emailed after server change

    After shifting to a Dreamhost private server from their shared hosting service, comments are no longer being emailed to my home address. I have tried multiple fixes, including verifying my admin email, adding a “wordpress@mydomain.com” email address, adding ini code to my wp-config.php file and a no-sender plug-in, none of which worked serially or in parallel.

    Anyone have any ideas what’s going on?

    Turns out that the default settings were set in my wp-options db, thus:

    It looks like your database has default settings for your wordpress
    installations mailserver settings. In order to send properly, you will want to change the following values in your “wp-options” table in the database:

    mailserver_url mail.example.com
    mailserver_login login@example.com
    mailserver_pass password

    Once these are filled in with the proper values, you should be able to send properly. As always, if you have any other questions, please let us know and we’ll reply as soon as possible!

    Only, changing those values didn’t work.
