Wordpress email notifications

#1

Hello,

I just moved my second domain over to DreamHost. After the move, I tested email notifications in Wordpress and it doesn’t seem to work. I should get an email when there is a new comment. After posting two comments, I still don’t see an email from my Wordpress blog.

I tested mail functionality of my contact form and guestbook and got the emails without changing anything related to mail server.

Is this something that I need to contact support for?

Thanks.

If you are able to receive emails, you should check Wordpress.

Are you using mail function or SMTP function to send the email? Is it possible that something blocks the normal SMTP port? I’m not sure whether it helps, but you may want to try to change SMTP port to 587.
