 * I have some questions regarding mail…
 * 1. The “test mail” function sends emails where? To the set addressee?
    2. Am 
   I correct to assume that the plugin does not send mails using wp_mail but PHP
   mail? 3. If 2. is correct, how would I use WP Mail SMTP then?

 * Hello.
    1) The test email at the Booking > Settings > Emails page is Sending 
   to the “From” email address that you have specified at the specific email template
   page at the Booking > Settings > Emails page.
 * But I recommend to make test booking at the front end side to test, if your email
   will be sending.
 * 2) No, it does not correct. Please note, Booking Calendar is use standard WordPress
   wp_mail function for sending emails. This function can be overridden by other
   plugins.
 * Please check this troubleshooting instruction [https://wpbookingcalendar.com/faq/no-emails/](https://wpbookingcalendar.com/faq/no-emails/)
 * The most probably you need to check the point #5 from this instruction and install
   WP Mail SMTP plugin which is ‘sending emails via php’ option and it can resolve
   that issue.
 * 3) Please check point #2
 * Kind Regards.

 * Hey.
 * 1) Okay, that explains a lot 🙂
    2) Very good, then WP Mail SMTP should work.
   3) I already use that. But my false assumption regarding 1) explains why I ddn’t
   get any mails. Now I do.
 * Thing here was that the mail server for the domain was moved away from the web
   server after it was done. That’s also the reason we had to use WP Mail SMTP anyway.
 * However, thanks to your quick reply, my issue is resolved. It’s sending mails
   perfectly fine.
 * Thanks
