Problem while sending Test Email
-
Hello, I have recently talked to my hosting provider which they then suggested I reach out here due to this issue being unresolved. This is a more recent issue as this was not a problem before.
Here is the description I get while trying to send a test email:
An issue was detected.
This means your test email was unable to be sent.
Typically this error is returned for one of the following reasons:
- Plugin settings are incorrect (wrong SMTP settings, invalid Mailer configuration, etc).
- Your web server is blocking the connection.
- Your host is rejecting the connection.
Recommended next steps:
- Triple-check the plugin settings and consider reconfiguring to make sure everything is correct. Maybe there was an issue with copy&pasting.
- Contact your web hosting provider and ask them to verify your server can make outside connections. Additionally, ask them if a firewall or security policy may be preventing the connection – many shared hosts block certain ports.
Note: this is the most common cause of this issue. - Try using a different mailer.
