 * Thanks! And no biggie – I know it was Thanksgiving week 🙂 Kinda hard to pull
   away from pumpkin pie 😀
 * No – no duplicate email addresses. It’s a new system (I created it locally back
   in April, and uploaded to live just last week) – so that can’t happen.
 * I ended up creating a new group (in Groups) called “All Users”. That seems to
   be working. So I’m not sure where the issue lies – in “Groups” or in “Email Users”–
   because it turns out I was wrong on “Groups” – it *is* adding registered users
   to the default Group, but it won’t *email* to the default group. Well, that’s
   not exactly true, either – I did send out a second attempt and maybe 10 of the
   58 users got the email (I did have access to several spam folders to check they
   weren’t going to spam – they are not). No idea what’s going on there. But putting
   everyone in a new group, though, does seem to work (so far).

 * Okay, so it appears that the group emails are going through – IF I send to a 
   group. “Registered Users” (the default groups everyone gets put in when they 
   register) is the only group that isn’t working. So it appears I need to create
   a group for all users, and manually add them to that group, and it’ll work. (
   I *am* using the “Groups” plugin with the Email Users plugin.)
 * Any other group I send to outside of “registered” seems to be working fine.
 * It also appears to be an issue with the “Groups” plugin. Although all the users
   show up in the default group when I filter the users list – the actual “Groups”
   page only shows 1 person is in that group – me. Which is why I’m getting the 
   emails, but no one else is. It appears there’s an issue there, instead of here.
   So off I trot to that plugin!

 * Okay, so I just tested again, and this time I added the WP SMTP plugin, and set
   it to go through gmail. My initial tests *seem* to be working with this change(
   although the test group I sent to is very small – only 4 emails – but everyone
   got it immediately).
 * I’m still getting this message though:
 * “Email has been sent to 3 users, but 4 recipients were originally found. Perhaps
   some users don’t have valid email addresses?”
 * And it sent to all 4 email addresses – not 3 – and all email addresses *are* 
   valid.
 * I’m getting ready to try it again with the entire group to see if the SMTP info
   is all that it needed to work.

 * Okay, another update. It appears that no one got the email, except for me (the
   site admin) and the newest person to register on the site. The other 56 members
   never received one.
 * Is there anything I could look for? Even which file in the plugin I could start
   with?

 * Well, further interesting things have happened. *Some* of the emails were sent.
   I have no idea what the factor is that makes the emails go through for some and
   not others. (Spam folders have been checked by the people who didn’t get it, 
   and they aren’t in there, either.)
 * And turning on “debug” is supposed to *not* send emails to people, but it 100%
   did (it also sent an email to me, even though “exclude the sender” is checked).
   I sent out a quick test to select people on the list, and got several emails 
   back saying it was working fine. Oops.
