 * Hello, i am getting the below error and my contact form 7 emails are not sending.
 *     ```
       EMAIL DELIVERY ERROR: the plugin WP Mail SMTP v2.7.0 logged this error during the last time it tried to send an email:
   
       Mailer: Default (none)
       PHPMailer was able to connect to SMTP server but failed while trying to send an email.
       Consider running an email test after fixing it.
       ```
   
 * i have google captcha V3 installed and the contact forms are Contact Form 7.
 * The test emails are working and i am using the default PHP mailer. I have already
   ticked the ‘Force From Email’ checkbox.

 * Hi [@warcher88](https://wordpress.org/support/users/warcher88/),
 * Thanks for reaching out! If you’re using the ‘Default’ (PHP) mailer option under
   the **WP Mail SMTP -> Settings** ([see](https://a.supportally.com/oKMG9L)), this
   is the method your site uses to send emails when SMTP plugin is not set up.
 * You can see all the available mailers from [here](https://wpmailsmtp.com/docs/a-complete-guide-to-wp-mail-smtp-mailers/),
   and configure a mailer of your choice. Once you configure a mailer, try testing
   your forms again.
 * I hope this helps.
 * Thanks!

 * ok i thought the default option would work. I will need to make an extra gmail
   account to have another go. I will get back to you.

 * Hi [@warcher88](https://wordpress.org/support/users/warcher88/) – We haven’t 
   heard from you in about a week, so I’m going to go ahead and mark this ticket
   resolved. If you still have questions, though, please feel welcome to continue
   the conversation.
