Every email delivery problem is different and we can focus better on your situation if you post a link to your form and some details about your setup, including your hosting company, and if you are using a plugin like WP Mail SMTP for mail delivery. Thank you. </p> https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/topic/email-notifications-stopped-working-1#post-44942 Mon, 26 Dec 2011 18:21:32 +0000 sethshoultes 44942@https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/ <p>I started having problems recently. All notifications go to the same email address. However, a few of the forms will not send notifications at all, even when manually resending the notifications. This started happening about two weeks ago. </p> https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/topic/email-notifications-stopped-working-1#post-42704 Thu, 01 Dec 2011 02:33:15 +0000 Chris Hajer 42704@https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/ <p>You can use an external SMTP server, like your Google Apps account, by installing and configuring the WP Mail SMTP plugin. Have you already tried that?</p> <p><a href="http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/wp-mail-smtp/" rel="nofollow">http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/wp-mail-smtp/</a></p> <p>You host is correct about the mail coming from your server. That's true. There is a WordPress function wp_mail() that uses the web server's mail function. That may not be ideal in your situation. The WP Mail SMTP plugin allows you to set a server of your choice. </p> https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/topic/email-notifications-stopped-working-1#post-42550 Wed, 30 Nov 2011 09:38:06 +0000 CraigElias 42550@https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/ <p>Here is something else that might help.</p> <p>I emailed the support team at Dreamhost about this issue and here is what they had to say</p> <p>The mail coming from the web server doesn't using Google apps, *** the webserver itself sends the emails. ***</p> <p>If you have any more questions then please let me know.</p> <p>Thanks!<br /> Daniel J</p> <p>I have sent them another request asking if there is a way for the emails to sent directly via Google apps or a way for the emails to go out immediately. </p> https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/topic/email-notifications-stopped-working-1#post-42519 Tue, 29 Nov 2011 22:36:34 +0000 CraigElias 42519@https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/ <p>This may help.</p> <p>I called and spent the last 30 minutes on the phone with Google Apps support and they told me I should have multiple MX records set up.</p> <p>Here is the page I used to add them in the right order - <a href="http://www.google.com/support/a/bin/answer.py?answer=174125" rel="nofollow">http://www.google.com/support/a/bin/answer.py?answer=174125</a></p> <p>Craig </p> https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/topic/email-notifications-stopped-working-1#post-42515 Tue, 29 Nov 2011 21:39:30 +0000 CraigElias 42515@https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/ <p>Has anyone received a real answer to this problem.</p> <p>Mine come up every now and again then goes away - without me making ANY changes to forms or anything else.</p> <p>The last time I had this error I double checked with my host that I had everything configured correctly.</p> <p>I'm a Google apps user. </p> https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/topic/email-notifications-stopped-working-1#post-39793 Wed, 02 Nov 2011 22:39:25 +0000 Chris Hajer 39793@https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/ <p>Mike, please try just one email address in the notification, and then try a different address (different domain) if the first single address does not work. It's possible your host does not like multiple emails in the TO: (although that seems unlikely, given how you have the other forms set up).</p> <p>Also, be sure in your notification that the email addresses are separated by one comma only (each), no spaces, no semi-colons.</p> <p>It's also interesting that the first two forms are older, and the one not sending notifications is newer. </p> https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/topic/email-notifications-stopped-working-1#post-39792 Wed, 02 Nov 2011 22:35:54 +0000 Chris Hajer 39792@https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/ <p>Gavinelis, please start a new topic for your issue so we can handle it individually.

The only thing is that I don't have the title displayed in the Gravity Forms shortcode on the third one (that seems pretty innocuous). Here's a comparison of my 3 forms:</p> <p><a href="https://docs.google.com/spreadsheet/pub?hl=en_US&amp;hl=en_US&amp;key=0AvTBHSGZL76qdHlrYzBVWmtCME5PR2RRaF9LZElLaVE&amp;output=html" rel="nofollow">https://docs.google.com/spreadsheet/pub?hl=en_US&amp;hl=en_US&amp;key=0AvTBHSGZL76qdHlrYzBVWmtCME5PR2RRaF9LZElLaVE&amp;output=html</a> </p>
