 * Hi [@lucillle](https://wordpress.org/support/users/lucillle/),
    Since the recipient
   is the email indicated at Dashboard > Settings > General please check whether
   there is placed valid email address. You may also check if PHP Mail Function 
   is enabled on your server. You can do this by contacting your hosting provider.
   Otherwise, we would recommend to set up SMTP on your site for better and more
   secure email delivery. There is a variety of free plugins that help to set up
   SMTP easily.

 * Hello Dimitar,
 * thanks for your answer.
    I have checked already if my email indicated at Dashboard
   > Settings > General is valid and yes it is. It’s my personal gmail adress. I
   try to change it with a another one created with my hosting provider Gandi but
   I never receive the email confirmation on my new mail box. So I don’t know what
   to do.
 * I have writen to my hosting povider also.

 * Hi [@lucillle](https://wordpress.org/support/users/lucillle/),
    Thank you for
   your reply. You need either to enable email delivery by turning on and configuring
   PHP Mail Function with the help of your hosting provider or set up SMTP using
   one fo the following plugins [https://wordpress.org/plugins/search/smtp/](https://wordpress.org/plugins/search/smtp/)

 * Hello Dimitar,
    I use formspree contact form because I wasn’t able to make the
   contact form works directly from wordpress, I tried the plugins but it was too
   complex for me. Thanks again for your help.
