XF 2.1 Not getting email notifications? + Contact Us issue

[JFPouncey]

Hey everyone!


Question1:
I've posted on brainfog.io and am not getting emails when someone responds to my thread. Even though my settings default this:


I want new users to get email notifications to bring them back to the site, and it its happening to me then its probably happening to them too!


Question 2:
I put in a few test inquiries on the "Contact Us" form, and have not received any of them, am I doing something wrong?

[Sim]

Default email address should generally match your domain (ie webmaster@brainfog.io or similar) to minimise chances it is marked as spam by email service providers.

How you send emails also matters - it's quite likely they are simply getting blocked.

Have you tried: Tools > Test outbound email to see if that works??

Okay, I switched it to jfpouncey@brainfog.io, and tested both and it seems to be working now, thanks!
