 * Fixed:
 * I visited: [https://wordpress.org/plugins/very-simple-contact-form/advanced/](https://wordpress.org/plugins/very-simple-contact-form/advanced/)
 * Selected and downloaded version 13.9 from the dropdown.
 * Uploaded to my website.
 * Filled out the form and clicked “Submit”
 * and BOOM! 3 seconds later, email received.
 * Update:
 * So 14.4 does not send any email. Gives: Error: transient
 * 13.9 send email but sends 2 identical emails.
 * Then try 13.6 and it would say sum is incorrect but still send 2 emails.
 * Too many bugs. The search for a lightweight, simple contact form continues…

 * Hi James,
 * Too bad it doesn’t work as expected. I’ve just tested current version and it 
   works fine over here.
   Do you have caching enabled at your site perhaps? If not,
   which PHP-version is active on your server?
