# Cannot send email using AMP

 * I am using a simple WPForms lite form that works great and sends an email when
   not run in AMP mode. When using AMP, the submit button turns to “sending…” for
   a split second and then goes back to saying submit. There are no errors shown
   on the page and the email never sends. I am using WP Mail SMTP for email, and
   no failures show up in the log.
 * I do not have a page to link to, because I disabled WP Forms Lite in AMP because
   a broken form that is confusing as to whether it is working could cost me business.

 * Hey [@aaronengel](https://wordpress.org/support/users/aaronengel/)
 * Thanks for reaching out and sorry for the trouble.
 * Would it be possible to create a temporary _no-index_ test page that we can use
   to test and investigate this problem on your site/staging site?
 * Thanks!

 * You can use [https://cardinalpointcounseling.com/amp-test](https://cardinalpointcounseling.com/amp-test)
 * I enabled WPFORMS in AMP to make this work, which means I had to take my form
   off of my real contact page temporarily. Long story short, please troubleshoot
   quickly so I can get my site back where it needs to be. Hopefully, soon I’ll 
   have a staging site so I can make these changes without disruption.

 * Hi [@aaronengel](https://wordpress.org/support/users/aaronengel/)
 * I’m sorry for the delay. It looks like you’ve already pulled this page down which
   is understandable. Would it be possible to create a staging site where we can
   troubleshoot this issue without affecting the production site?
 * There are several plugins on the plugins repo that you can use to quickly clone
   your site to a subdomain for testing.
 * Thanks, and please let me know!

   is still up and accessible.

 * Oops, it wasn’t published, which explains why I could see it but you couldn’t.
   It’s published now.

 * I did also create a staging site with the contact page at [https://cardinalpointcounseling.com/cardinal-staging/?page_id=24](https://cardinalpointcounseling.com/cardinal-staging/?page_id=24).
   It appears this link only works if logged in. I am not sure if this is by design?
   If not logged in, the site redirects to production. I have read articles on this
   behavior and adjusted permalink settings, but the behavior remains.
 * The temporary production page still works however.

 * Hi,
 * I haven’t heard from you in almost 5 days. Please respond, as my site is in a
   suboptimal state while waiting.
 * Thanks

 * Hi [@aaronengel](https://wordpress.org/support/users/aaronengel/)
 * Apologies for the delay.
 * It appears that your staging page link is currently password protected. This 
   may be by design since most staging URLs are not available to the public but 
   you can change this by following [these steps](https://wp-staging.com/docs/make-staging-website-publicly-available/).
 * The first link is unfortunately still not accessible from my end. Would you mind
   testing it from an incognito window on your browser?
 * Thanks, and please let me know!

 * Hi,
 * I tested the other page from an incognito window on my computer and phone, and
   it works without issue (at least the page comes up and the problem can be reproduced).
 * The step linked above only works with the pro version, which I do not have.

 * I could create a staging account for you, but don’t really want to post the credentials
   in a public forum (even for staging).

 * Hey [@aaronengel](https://wordpress.org/support/users/aaronengel/)
 * I was able to get your form to work on my end and it appears that it is reporting
   the following error:
 * `log.js:232 [amp-form] Form submission failed: Error: HTTP error 406​​​`
 * This error suggests that you might need to reach out to your host so that they
   can help to whitelist the amp_source_origin request. It looks like your server
   has a Mod_secirity rule that is blocking it.
 * I hope this helps!
