Some servers balk at sending unauthenticated mail when it does not come from an email address at that domain (for example, if your site is example.com, and the email address the user enters in your form is <a href="mailto:chris@rocketgenius.com">chris@rocketgenius.com</a>, then the server may not want to send that, since it expects all the mail it is sending to be from existing users at example.com)</p> <p>Please see here for further detailed instructions on troubleshooting notifications:<br /> <a href="http://www.gravityhelp.com/documentation/page/Troubleshooting_Notifications" rel="nofollow">http://www.gravityhelp.com/documentation/page/Troubleshooting_Notifications</a> </p> https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/topic/not-getting-email-notifications-from-hostgator-dedicated-server#post-133989 Mon, 28 Jan 2013 10:54:45 +0000 LESRLLC 133989@https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/ <p>PS: FYI, we installed GF to replace a fully functional copy of Contact 7 (plus the database plugin for C7) which was working perfectly and sending out emails. Hopefully this rules some things out? </p> https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/topic/not-getting-email-notifications-from-hostgator-dedicated-server#post-133580 Mon, 28 Jan 2013 03:01:17 +0000 LESRLLC 133580@https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/ <p>I have used GF on a few websites over the years but my latest install on a Hostgator dedicated server is not sending email notifications out to admin or user. Anyone got anything specific to check for WP on a Hostgator dedicated server? Thanks much! </p>
