Title: wp-mail problem — host problem??? Last modified: August 18, 2016 --- # wp-mail problem — host problem??? * Resolved [seafox](https://wordpress.org/support/users/seafox/) * (@seafox) * [20 years, 3 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/wp-mail-problem-host-problem/) * I’m using the previous version of WP and using WP-Cron. I”ve read and re-read the Setting Up Blog by Email article but I’m obviously still missing something. I’ve sent 2 messages to the user I set up for this and the message are sitting in the mailbox at the host. * So I am getting emails from my host with the subject line:wp-mail error and the message: Ooops POP3: premature NOOP OK, NOT an RFC 1939 Compliant server * Does this mean that my host site does not support it? Or what am I doing wrong? * Thanks.

The Troubleshooting section of the Blog by Email article notes this error, but when I looked at the the file in question I saw that the line in question already had an exclamation point. * Took a much closer examination of the code to find that there are two similar lines one of which did NOT have the exclamation point. * Am now getting my emailed posts.
