 * When I using “Send all WordPress emails via SMTP.” I getting bool(false)
    When
   I using “Use the PHP mail() function to send emails.” I getting bool(true) but
   I still do not receive any mails. I using contact form 7 and some of the explains
   I found is to use this plugin to set smtp, I read the note of contact form 7 
   and I getting the green border that said the message sent, can the problem be
   with the hosting? I using register.com

 * What SMTP Port are you using? Some hosting providers block Port 25, by default.
 * Also, check out this blurb from the FAQs:
 * > **My plugin still sends mail via the mail() function**
   >  If other plugins you’re
   > using are not coded to use the wp_mail() function but instead call PHP’s mail()
   > function directly, they will bypass the settings of this plugin. Normally, 
   > you can edit the other plugins and simply replace the mail( calls with wp_mail((
   > just adding wp_ in front) and this will work. I’ve tested this on a couple 
   > of plugins and it works, but it may not work on all plugins.
 * I’m not familiar with the underlying code in Contact Form 7. Perhaps it’s using**
   mail()**, as opposed to **wp_mail()**.

 * Thanks, you think I should ask at Contact Form 7 support?
    I need to check the
   setting, I did not understand the blurb you gave, can you explain it?
