XF 2.2 Admin email?

[Alvin63]

Just setting up my first forum and I'd like the option for members to be able to send an email to admin@forumsite name. For one particular issue/request. I tried sending an email to admin@mywebsite and it failed to deliver.

Is there something I need to do to set up email in my xenforo forum or on the server?

You most likely need to setup that email. Your host would know what your default email address is. Our default email address was "forumname@forumname.net. We have cpanel so we just setup additional emails which one was admin@forumname.net

My shared hosting includes email for my domain. So I would set that up through their email system, not Xenforo, then set it as the admin email for Xenforo in ACP. As it is, we set up a GMail during startup and have continued to use that out of habit, though I've been contemplating changing it.
