 * Thanks for the reply. I contacted them but they said everything was ok. I triple
   checked everything in my gmail (business account) and no filters, nothing in 
   spam, trash, other, etc. I don’t know why but I created other accounts in my 
   business domain and they worked fine.
 * I ended up just changing the from address in WordPress to a new email (and having
   that email address exist as well, like my last one) and it works fine again. *
   Shrug*

 * Sorry people, I looked into it further and it appears to only be happening with
   a custom theme. Closing topic.

 * Hi again,
 * I took the time to track it down to the source in the code. I’m seeing the problem
   in the class-wp-upgrader.php as it tries to copy one file:
 *     ```
       // Copy update-core.php from the new version into place.
       		if ( !$wp_filesystem->copy($working_dir . '/wordpress/wp-admin/includes/update-core.php', $wp_dir . 'wp-admin/includes/update-core.php', true) )
       ```
   
 * So basically the rendered version would be
 * `if ( !$wp_filesystem->copy('D:\Web Sites\Hosted\MYWEB/wp-content/upgrade/wordpress-
   2.9/wordpress/wp-admin/includes/update-core.php', 'D:\Web Sites\Hosted\MYWEB/
   wp-admin/includes/update-core.php', true)`
 * Digging a bit further, I dig into the class-wp-filesystem-direct.php:
 *     ```
       function copy($source, $destination, $overwrite = false) {
       		if ( ! $overwrite && $this->exists($destination) )
       			return false;
       		return copy($source, $destination);
       	}
       ```
   
 * Basically it skips past the overwrite code, and tries to do a simple PHP copy.
   This, I would assume, is a permission problem with my host. What do I have to
   ask of them to get this to work? Does EVERYTHING need to be writable???

 * I tried #1 as I read that thread before asking this question. Did not change 
   much. And I do have define(‘FS_METHOD’, ‘direct’); already in my config.
 * Thanks for the help but no workie. If anyone else can suggest anything else I’ll
   give it a shot. I just wish I had a more informative error.
