In the notification, are you sending it from the email that was submitted, or does it come from an email address associated with the domain, or some other email? This problem seems to come up often enough that there has to be more to it. I can envision a form that collects all the pertinent data to troubleshoot this further: <ul> <li>URL of the form</li> <li>hosting company</li> <li>Gravity Forms version</li> <li>WordPress version</li> <li>built in wp_mail() or SMTP plugin? <ul> <li>which SMTP plugin?</li> <li>configuration settings for the SMTP plugin</li> </ul> </li> <li>where are the notifications being sent?</li> <li>where does the notification email appear to be sent from?</li> <li>further information</li> </ul> I haven't ever been able to recreate the problem which makes me think there is some variable not being accounted for somewhere.

It could be something with your web server setup that is preventing you from being able to send to multiple email addresses this way using PHP.

Nobody else is reporting issues and Gravity Forms uses a WordPress function to send email, or the SMTP plugin if it is present. Gravity Forms itself doesn't send the emails. So either 1) your server isn't sending the emails or 2) your email server isn't receiving them OR is sending them to a spam box. Try setting up emails on another domain names or service such as hotmail or yahoo and see if you receive the emails there. It could be something specific with the email server you are trying to send mail to. peterdbaron on "Administrator emails" https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/topic/administrator-emails#post-6111 Sat, 05 Jun 2010 14:13:27 +0000 peterdbaron 6111@https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/ Carl, I added the plugin and eliminated spaces between the admin email addresses (looks like <a href="mailto:first@email.com">first@email.com</a>,two@email.com). I also set up a confirmation email for the person submitting the form. I then submitted a form and received the confirmation, but didn't get the results sent to the two admin emails. I'm officially stumped. Any other ideas?

This is common on IIS servers, although we sometimes see it with Linux based servers. SMTP is a more reliable method to send email. Here is an SMTP plugin for WordPress: <a href="http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/wp-mail-smtp/" rel="nofollow">http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/wp-mail-smtp/</a> You will need to install and configure the SMTP settings on that plugin and that will force WordPress to send email via SMTP. peterdbaron on "Administrator emails" https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/topic/administrator-emails#post-5949 Tue, 01 Jun 2010 12:56:34 +0000 peterdbaron 5949@https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/ Yah, I did that too - I used my address as the only recipient. Didn't receive an email update- even checked my spam filter, but it wasn't there either. Other ideas?

Another thing to try is different email addresses, check to make sure it works with just one email and then make sure the emails don't arrive in a spam box at the recipients. peterdbaron on "Administrator emails" https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/topic/administrator-emails#post-5946 Tue, 01 Jun 2010 12:45:54 +0000 peterdbaron 5946@https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/ Thanks, Carl. I tried it with & without spaces, but still no email updates. Could it have something to do with the version of mysql that I'm running (4 vs 5). Planning to migrate to 5 today.

Ex. "email1@email1.com,email2@email2.com,email3@email3.com" We've had reports that if there are extra spaces that it doesn't work. So be sure that you do not have any extra spaces.
