Hi, I recently ugpraded my server to a VPS and have CentOS 64bit running. For some reason form submissions are not being emailed/delivered. Perhaps I need to install something on the server?
Many thanks,
-Patrick

Will your WordPress site send email now, for new user registrations or comment notifications? If so, then you probably do not need to install anything. However, there may be an issue with the email notifications coming from Gravity Forms. That's because Gravity Forms can set the from email address and the from name, and some email servers do not like that and think it's spam. You can make email notifications arrive more reliably by installing and configuring an SMTP plugin. That will override the default wp_mail() function and use an external server rather than your server's built in PHP mail function. Here are a couple of SMTP servers:
http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/configure-smtp/
http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/cimy-swift-smtp/
http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/wp-mail-smtp/Install and configure one of those and be sure you can receive the test message reliably. Once that is done, see if your Gravity Forms notifications will arrive.
