Hi yipbgates,
I was actually having this same problem, and for me, it was due to how contact form 7 was configured.
In the mail tab on your contact 7 form try this. Set your “From” field to [email protected] and then in additional headers add:
Sender: [email protected]
Reply-To: [your-name] <[your-email]>
Make sure you have them both on separate lines or it won’t work. This is what finally was able to make it all work for me, so hope it helps you.
