Not getting emails from Contact form

  • Unknown's avatar

    I’m currently running on a contest at http://www.romanticreads.net in which entrants have use the contact form to send links where they find buried easter eggs. I’m getting 10x the number of page hits as usual, but no emails. In my initial test before I posted, it went through from my own account just fine. I did a test this morning from husband’s Verizon account, and it didn’t come through to me, nor was it returned back to him. The entries aren’t getting caught in my MS Outlook Spam filter. And they’re not showing up anywhere that I can find on WordPress. Any idea where they might be going or how to get them back?

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

    I’ve just used your contact form, so let me know if you got it!

    Maybe people just haven’t found the links yet?

    I got your test – thanks!

    When I did a test of my own from an unverified account with links in it, the email never came through. That’s what has me worried. I wonder how many others have tried to send. From the activity on the site, it seems as though people are participating.

    After more testing, it seems that a listing of three links will go through, but not five.

    Anyone have any idea of where they might be going?

    Yes: to spam. Check your settings under Discussion: usually posts with four or more links get sent to spam automatically. You can change that setting on the Discussion page.
