That is what I figured was the case (see my 5th post to this thread, 9th reply), but alas no one was able to describe that before I found the video for the plugin method from the link provided, which worked perfectly. If your emails are being continually dropped into spam folders it’s because the email server receiving them isn’t able to validate the server as valid for the domain and you likely need to set an SPF record and possibly reverse DNS records but the latter is usually something the host providing the IP address for the server needs to Thanks that is good to know. So just to clarify this does not need to be done so that WP/ BuddyPress can send emails they have no problem sending emails as long as the server and domain records are correctly setup. Plugins will try and bridge that gap between correct configurations, and users technical knowledge and I guess if they work alls well and good, but better is that things are sorted out at the real point of breakage.

Hopefully this helps others because BuddyPress and Word Press do not make it clear that this needs to be done in order to SEND (rather than receive) email from your account or for member registration to work–this is why many people who are Word Press novices can become confused when site registration doesn’t work.įor the record you do not really need to be adding further plugins to WP to sort out what is actually not an issue ever related to an application but rests at the server / domain level and in correct server sendmail or other versions of smpt/relay programs configurations and of properly configured email dns records, and requires a little technical knowledge when things don’t work out of the box. It worked! The debug/test email did not return an error and when I tested the registration for my site, I finally received the activation email–albeit buried in my spam folder. I also didn’t feel comfortable putting my real email’s username and password, un-hidden, into the username and password form, so I created a new YAHOO account especially for sending emails from my wordpress blog instead of my normal account, to use for this plugin. I ran into a problem (mentioned earlier in this post) because GMAIL does not allow the plugin access to the account and labels it as suspicious activity–this kept returning an error message in the debug (test email).

The plugin should install perfectly fine.Įssentially, anyone who has the activation/registration email problem needs to download the “WP Mail SMTP” plugin and then enter the correct settings, as described in the video. Watch it! I would just skip the part about using the FTP to finish installing the plugin (skip 3:00-6:20).

So I had to watch this youtube video, which explained how to solve the issue using the WP Mail SMTP, step by step: I just think the link is very vague and doesn’t explain at all how these plugins are supposed to help or what exactly you are supposed to do with them–it just says ‘most people found these helpful’. I will post the solution below for those, like who have the same problem:īasically, the “WP Mail SMTP” plugin method from the link Aces provided worked. Thank you for answering and being helpful.
