  I created a new email address with GoDaddy and when I went to change my email settings in WordPress I never got a confirmation email. I also added this new email in my contact form, and again, it isn’t working. Everything seems to be working on GoDaddy’s end so I’m coming here to see if it’s possibly a WordPress issue.

  I am able to send and receive emails with this address just fine but when I try and use it with WordPress I get nothing. Any ideas?

  The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

  Hi there,

  Please check if the below article is of any help.
  http://www.wpbeginner.com/wp-tutorials/how-to-fix-wordpress-not-sending-email-issue/

  Having said that, this forum only supports the sites hosted on WordPress.com. Please post your question on the WordPress.org support forum: https://wordpress.org/support/

  Both(WordPress.com and WordPress.org) are different products. You can find out the differences between them here: https://en.support.wordpress.com/com-vs-org/

  Thank you.

  HI there,

  Since both your WordPress site and email address are hosted by GoDaddy you need to contact them regarding the issues you’re having.

  As @iamrishaan pointed out WordPress.com and WordPress.org have differences.
