    Hi,

    I've installed contact form plug-ins on my site. When the submit button is clicked, it says Message was successfully sent but I never got the message on my mailbox. I'm using bluehost by the way. Kindly advise on what I should do.

    Thanks!

    There are a lot of possible reasons for that: blacklisted server, wrong MX records, error in the plugin, error on the server. If you don't have developer skills and can't just open the plugin and start debugging it, I recommend to contact hosting support. Technically they don't have to debug your scripts and can deny this support request but I've seen cases when this helped: if they are nice knowledgeable guys and are not over-loaded with support tickets, they might go extra mile and debug it for you. Or they may deny this support request. But in any case it doesn't hurt to try :)

    Contact your hosting provider and ask for help. Ask them if PHP mail() Function is started.

    Or you can do the following thing:

    Save this code to 1.php :

    <?php
    phpinfo();
    ?>


    Then upload 1.php to your server and acces it. eG: yourdomain/1.php

    Then look for PHP mail() Function if it's open

    goodluck.
