 * I have a few websites that are using CF7 and they are all receiving duplicate
   emails for every email that comes through. They are all on different servers,
   so it’s not something related to that. Can you help me understand why this would
   be happening?

 * Hi,
   Are there any (same) plugins that are installed in each of these environments/
   configurations (without _Contact Form 7_)?If so, I would first check if these
   plugins are the source of the problem.

 * The only other plugins related to contact forms in any way are “Contact Form 
   CFDB7” and “Honeypot for Contact Form 7”. However, after looking at the plugins,
   wondering if “WPML Multilingual CMS” has anything to do with it since there are
   2 languages on the site. However, that said, I do have an English and Spanish
   version of each contact form, so it shouldn’t be doing that.

 * Still trying to figure this out. It’s happening so much that it’s starting to
   really annoy the client. And it shows in CFDB7 plugin that the emails are being
   sent twice, and sometimes more, like 4 times. Please help plugin admin.

   page contact form.

 * See [Setting up mail](https://contactform7.com/setting-up-mail/)
 * What email settings do you have in the Mail tab panel?
 * To protect personal data, hiding email addresses in the settings or replacing
   them with dummy addresses is strongly advised. You can also [include screenshots](https://wordpress.org/support/forum-user-guide/faq/#can-i-include-screenshots-or-videos).

 * The settings in the Mail tab are as follows:
 * **To** – [client@emailaddress.com](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/duplicate-emails-34/client@emailaddress.com?output_format=md)(
   client’s email address)
   **From** – [your-name] <noreply@url.com> (url of the 
   site)**Subject** – Description of which contact form this is coming rom**Additional
   Headers** – Reply-To: <[your-email]>
 * This is how I have it set up on all other sites I help manage, and they seem 
   to work okay.

 * Try switching to the default theme, deactivating all plugins excluding Contact
   Form 7, Classic Editor, Classic Widgets and Site Kit by Google, and clearing 
   all cache data.
