Hi. I’m not sure what’s going on.
When you have a Contact Form, or a Password reset, you do get an email?
It could be that the From header in the email gets blocked by the mailserver.
Does the mail end up in your spamfolder maybe? Without looking at the maillog it’s hard to tell what is happening.
Hi Marcel,
first of all: nice work with the plugin. I like it, as it is simple and works fine 🙂
However I haver the same problem with a page I’m working on. Emails from Contact Form 7 and WordPress (password-reset) are well received on my google-mail-address.
Whereas I do not get any guestbook-notifications on my email-address. The address oviously is the same as for the password-reset.
Yes, I’ve checked spam, and the notification isn’t in there as well.
Do you have any idea? Might it be because I have comments globally deactivated? Is there any way to “hard-code” the email-address to notify?
Looking forward to your help,
Michael
Hi. In the next version 1.0.8 there will be an option to set the From address of the notification mail.
By default the From address is your admin email, in General >> Settings. Make sure you can mail from that address.
You are sure that you are listed as subscribed on the Settingspage?
You can check in the database the contents of the option (in wp_options) for gwolle_gb-notifyByMail. It is a comma-separated list of user_id’s. Your user_id should be there as well.
Hi,
in gwolle_gb-notifyByMail there is only my id listed. So I guess it should work? However it doesn’t 🙁
With Contact Form 7 I also use my email-address to send out the mails. Works fine.
Cheers,
Michael
Hi,
With 1.0.8 you can change the From address for the notification email. The “name” in the from address is also set to the name of the website.
If you still have problems with these emails, I suggest you look at the log. It might be that you need to request a maillog from the hosting provider.
Yes, seems to work now 🙂
Thanks for this 🙂
Ok, that’s good 🙂
I don’t know what happened before, guess we will never know :).
My account is with google-mail. Maybe it blocks emails that do not have a good “from”-information? However the were never marked as spam.
This is a case for the X-files… 😀

Hi Lacerise,
You didn’t answer my questions.
When you have a Contact Form, or a Password reset, you do get an email?
It could be that the From header in the email gets blocked by the mailserver.
Does the mail end up in your spamfolder maybe? Without looking at the maillog it’s hard to tell what is happening.
The comment in the code you posted is about mailing the autor of the entry, not the moderator. The moderator should get email.
Also, in the current version you can set the From address. Does that help?
oups really sorry
– yes IT WORKS (without WP STMP plugin)
– emails are not in spam
– i have 2 emails in the FROM
again
sorry, i didn’t answer to your first message cause i didn’t notice you answered me !
and thanks for your work and for the plugin !
Oh, I’m not sure I understand everything you write :).
Great that it works. What exactly made it work? Setting the From header in Settings?
Oh, and you probably don’t want youe email-address posted here? You might get more spam.
oh i’m sorry
my english is not good
i said
i did NOT receive email notification from “gwolle GB” plugin
but i receive email notifications from “contact form 7” plugin
then i said i put two email addresses in the FROM of your plugin but nothing works
