  Hello there,

  Many thanks for reaching out.

  To check, have you received an email asking you for a donation?

  that is correct, but followed by that email, I received this message:

  Your message wasn’t delivered to (email visible only to moderators and staff) because the address couldn’t be found or is unable to receive email.
  The response from the remote server was:

  I’m a little confused as to what the issue here is. From what I gathered, you’re the author of the site https://agiletechniques.org/, and you received an email about a donation done through your website? Then, when checking PayPal, you do not see any donation. Is that correct?

  If so, it’s probably a good idea to contact PayPal to be sure.

  Since the site https://agiletechniques.org/ is not hosted with WordPress.com, but with A2 Hosting, we can’t check the backend of the site. The donation plugin developers may also offer some insight as to what happened.
