    Same issue as everyone else after WP update, “FAILED TO SEND YOUR MESSAGE. PLEASE TRY LATER OR CONTACT THE ADMINISTRATOR BY ANOTHER METHOD.”
    This is not good for my client. Any word on a fix??

    We’re tracking any issues in https://wordpress.org/support/topic/read-this-first-wordpress-44-master-list?replies=7&view=all#post-7857957 🙂

    @surfrunner
    Have you tried disabling any other plugins to rule out a plugin conflict (it’s not possible for anyone here to guess which plugins you have so we can’t rule out a conflict for you), and on the off chance that it is a rule problem did you ask your host about it?

    Following on from my earlier post I have fixed my forms – it was a problem with the “From” field in the email settings tab.

    With the field configured like this:

    [name] <[email]>

    all my forms are now working.

    Hi kate_kreate,

    Would you kindly explain the process a little bit elaborately, as I am also facing the same problem in my site & couldn’t solve it. I tried to use class-phpmailer.php from WP 4.3.1, but it didn’t work out. Thanks in advance.

    I have multiple client sites using multiple hosting providers and not a single one of their contact forms is working. All getting the same error stated by others in this thread. This is CLEARLY an issue with the plugin. Please fix it!

    Is everyone here having a problem submitting the form only through mobile Safari or all devices, desktops, etc? I’m only having trouble submitting through mobile Safari only.

    kate_kreate,

    That solved it for me, thanks! All forms submitting as desired.

    I had the “From” email portion not formatted correctly. Of course it worked prior to the update. Quick fix, anyone else with similar issue try this first before anything else to test it out.

    Thanks again.

    @kate_kreate @surfrunner

    FYI:

    I removed [name] <[email]> from the “From” field and replaced it with <my@email.com> and it has not resolved my issue.

    MMfotos,

    This is what I used:
    [first-name] [last-name] <[your-email]>

    @manas Mitra @mmfotos

    Like @surfrunner, for my fix I formatted the email field with the [name] form field and [email] form field as used in my form.

    so in my case [your-name] <[email]>

    The arrows and square brackets are key.

    @kate_kreate @surfrunner

    Hello again,

    Sorry to bother, I’m usually very sharp w these things but I must not be recognizing something here. Would you mind going to my post about this and looking at my last code snippet to tell me where my downfall is please?

    https://wordpress.org/support/topic/contact-form-7-mobile-not-sending

    I upgraded 4.3.1 CF7 and WP to 4.4.1. Has anyone else seen an issue with their HTML email responders losing their formatting and have a fix? I don’t really want to revert back to WP 4.4.0.
    thx

    After I installed the update to WordPress 4.4.1, I noticed that I have the same issue with sending messages. Until the update everything worked fine, so I am sure that the update changed something, and that is causing the problem (even if just indirectly).

    However, I tried what other users recommended and that fixed my problem!

    Until now I had in the From field only the text “WordPress” and Contact Form 7 worked correctly until now, adding the email address automatically to the text in that field.

    But now after the current WordPress update, when nothing worked anymore, I figured out that I must also add a valid email address to that field, so at this moment the content of my From field looks like this: “WordPress <name@yourdomain.com>”.

    I’ve ended up rolling back to 4.4 – followed this tutorial: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_lX3E-qIpJM. CM7 forms and HTML now working as previous. Will await more news before upgrading

    Thanks kate_kreate,

    Placing the email that was inside the angle brackets also inside square brackets i.e. <[email]> fixed things right up for me.

    Really appreciate you figuring this out and posting your solution.

    Thanks again!
