Email Sending Issue
Email Sending Issue Solved
A WordPress debugging assignment aimed at resolving the problem of delivering emails and enabling efficient email communications generated through the website.
About This Project
The assignment in question entailed dealing with the WordPress email sending problem, which meant that essential website emails were not being delivered to recipients. Emails sent via the contact form, WooCommerce notifications, password reset requests, and other transactional messages could either fail to reach their destinations or get delivered as spam.
A detailed analysis of the website’s email setup was conducted, covering such aspects as SMTP configurations, plugin performance, sender verification, and any server-based restrictions. Following the necessary adjustments and several tests, all outgoing emails started getting delivered successfully.
