Admin and some user emails not coming through

Hi,

I’ve spent over half a day going though this and looking at all the options.

Emails have been coming through but not all of them. This suggested to me that the email system is working but…

I have used my own smtp settings (with WP mail SMTP plugin), I’ve also created a mailgun account and a send grid account. All have been tested using the WP mail SMTP test feature, all accounts delivered mail.

I have entered my email address at the bottom of the settings / email page.

I have created test accounts which ‘Require admin review’ by setting this in the user role area. The emails that were getting through to the user were the “account is pending review” email.

I have never received an admin email from the system.

I then authorised some test accounts and rejected others. More user emails came through at this stage but still no admin emails.

I then used a logged in user account to delete the account. The account deleted correctly but no user email was received and still no admin emails.

I then went through the process of winding the system back to a bland theme (2017) without any plugins activated (except ultimate members and WP mail SMTP)

Here’s where things get spooky. Since switching off all other plugins now NO MAIL is being sent, no user emails and no admin emails. If I use WP mail SMTP to send a test email then that still comes through.

Where should I look now?

Thanks in anticipation

Russell
