 * Hi,
 * when I try to use the sharing button for emails – the email is never received.
   I also checked my spam mails, and other mail accounts, but it is not showing 
   up. What can I do?
 * Thanks,
    Linda

 * Could you post a link to one of the posts where you use the button, so I can 
   make a small test?
 * Thanks!

 * I didn’t receive any email either.
 * It sounds like your server might not be configured properly to send emails through
   the `wp_mail` function, which Jetpack uses.
 * Can you try installing the Check Email plugin and sending yourself a test email
   to see if it works? You can download the plugin here:
    [http://wordpress.org/plugins/check-email/](http://wordpress.org/plugins/check-email/)
 * If you didn’t receive a test email, you could try using a plugin like this one
   to configure your WordPress site to use a specific email service:
    [http://wordpress.org/plugins/wp-mail-smtp/](http://wordpress.org/plugins/wp-mail-smtp/)
 * If the function appears to be work properly, it means that Jetpack’s emails are
   filtered out before they can reach our inboxes:
 * * They can be filtered out by your server before they even get sent out; your
   hosting provider should be able to check their server email logs to find out 
   if the emails were blocked.
    * They can be filtered out by our email providers(
   I used Gmail in my test). If that’s the case I’m afraid the only way around this
   would be to send your emails through a different provider, thanks to the plugin
   I mentioned above.
 * Let me know if this helps!

 * Hi,
 * Which mail server is used to send sharing email?
    I receive mail sent from my
   English page but doesn’t receive anything sent from the same post translated 
   to Russian (I use WPML plugin).

 * Ok, it’s hosting mail server as I see.
 * It works perfect with my posts in main language (English) but when it doesn’t
   work when I share it from my post in Russian. I checked Spam folder. Jetpack 
   doesn’t support Cyrillic?

 * > Ok, it’s hosting mail server as I see.
 * That’s correct. The emails are sent from your WordPress installation, using WordPress’
   built-in `wp_mail()` function:
    [https://codex.wordpress.org/Function_Reference/wp_mail](https://codex.wordpress.org/Function_Reference/wp_mail)
 * Jetpack consequently doesn’t control how the emails are being sent.
 * If you’re experiencing issues with some of the emails blocked when being sent
   out from your server, I’d recommend using a plugin like this one to solve the
   issue:

 * This plugin doesn’t let change the email subject to Russian.
    This is connectivity

   It works fine, I receive the message. As my hosting provider says it’s not mail
   server issue, it’s jetpack issue. Below received email details: Received: from
   p3nlsmtp20.shr.prod.phx3.secureserver.net (p3nlsmtp20.shr.prod.phx3.secureserver.
   net. [72.167.234.245]) by mx.google.com with ESMTPS id 27si32770143pfp.194.2016.01.11.19.06.01

 * Ok, I changed the subject to Russian in the source file PostmanSendTestEmailController.
   php
 *     ```
       /* translators: where %s is the domain name of the site */
       		$subject = sprintf ( _x ( 'Postman SMTP Test (%s)', 'Test Email Subject', Postman::TEXT_DOMAIN ), $serverName );
       ```
   
 * It works as well. I received email with subject in Russian. Something wrong with
   Jetpack.

 * Hi Jeremy,
 * I’ve just share via email with Jetpack and it worked in both languages. I don’t
   know what changed. Anyway thanks for your support.

 * The Postman plugin allowed you to change where the emails were sent from. You
   now use a different email service to send out the emails, and you’re consequently
   working around the limitations of your server.

 * So the Postman plugin must be always activated?
