Share by email misbehaving?

  • Unknown's avatar

    I have two WordPress.com blogs, a test one at t123123.wordpress.com and a production one at scvgs.org. Both have sharing via email turned on. I have tried sharing by email today, using both blogs, emailing both a post and a page, using IE, Firefox, and Chrome, and mailing to two different email addresses. I have not received anything in email at either address. I have checked that it wasn’t caught in a spam filter. Both addresses receive posts by email when a post is first put on the page.

    I can’t tell what the problem is. Thanks for any help.

    (/rant on/ When I report a problem of this sort, often someone goes and tries to reproduce it and can’t, and I’m told “It’s a browser issue.” This suggests it works with one browser and not another. This answer has a couple of problems with it. One is that most of my users use IE, so if it’s an IE bug it looks like a WordPress bug to them, even if it isn’t. The second problem is there hasn’t been enough testing to show the answer is accurate. The correct answer may be that it’s a caching issue, rather than a browser issue. You may encounter the problem if you visit the same site repeatedly, no matter which browser you use, but not the first time, no matter which browser. So “it’s a browser issue” is not a satisfactory answer, in my opinion. It does nothing to prevent my users from having the problem, and continuing to have it, and suggests nothing I can do to prevent it from continuing. rant off)

    I have the same exact problem. Have been trying and failing to find a solution on my own…
