I have issue with sending mail to users when they register and submit for reset password as well
The error shows
the email could not be sent. possible reason: your host may have disabled the mail() function.
Set SMTP settings in WP configuration, don't use mail() function.
And here you should configure your SMTP(gmail account for example):

Its can be a server side issue, Im also having this problem on webmin virtualmin but the best way to fix if your mail server not working fine you can take a look on postman smtp plugin its perfect and working good on all Wordpress sites.

Using Contact Form 7 on Wordpress (or other contact plugins) it sends the email to the wrong email server.
A few months ago the non-profit I work for switched from the email integrated with BlueHost to G-Suite for non-profits. When someone fills out a form on our website though it sends to our old email server. So we miss any messages coming through our website. All other mail sends and receives correctly through Gmail. It is only mail sent from our Wordpress site. I have tried other form plugins and they have the same issue.
I have tried searching for a solution but I haven't been able to find answers. I assume it is an issue with Wordpress or Bluehost, but I don't know where to start.
Figured it out. The issue ended up being with the web host (even though they blamed CloudFlare). The mail DNS was setup properly through CloudFlare. However, since it hadn't been changed through BlueHost's DNS settings, it was still sending to the wrong mail server.
I have used default WordPress wp-mail functions to send mail notification
The issue is after submitting the forms or any other notification mail is received with some delay.
SMTP mail functionality also tried with wp-mail plugin but no improvement. what is this cause of delay of mail functions.
Note : There is any server dependency in mail functionality, because its little faster in our dev server then live server
I would recommend uses this wp smtp plugin. https://wordpress.org/plugins/wp-mail-smtp/
In my opinion you have to set up properly the outgoing email address to receive the emails on time or avoid emails spam issue.

I'm using vagrant which uses ubuntu to serve my Wordpress website. I simply want Wordpress to be able to send mails somehow. This is because I want to test email forms. Is there any way to do this? And how can i do this?
You can either use a tool like MailCatcher and configure your wordpress installation to use its SMTP server — it comes with an email viewer —, or use a simple tool like ssmtp which will relay your requests to an actual mail server — like GMail.
I am using WooCommerce with Wordpress and I want to view the emails that get sent out when an order is complete on my localhost development environment.
I have the program Fake SMTP Server setup to listen at port 25 but no email appears to arrive within the app?
Any ideas what this could be - I am using a recent installation of XAMPP
Mailnest.io should work for you
I'm not sure why Fake SMTP wouldn't be working for you. Might I suggest giving MailSlurper a try. Local mail server, web-based interface. Full disclosure - I am the author of MailSlurper.
For anyone else looking to use test email in WordPress please take a look at Imitate Email (it is one of my projects).
Free to get going, tested with WordPress and a 1 line JS will drop it in to your WordPress site so that you can see test emails as you work on WordPress.
I'm using wordpress 3.8, Mail SMTP plugin to send emails, and cpanel. In my local it works fine as my host is gmail. And once I uploaded it live I get authentication failed and I'm sure I typed my gmail username and password correctly. Is there any configuration that must be done? In cpanel perhaps? Or the plugin itself? Please help out. Any help would be great. Thanks.
Can you please check you server is configurations done as per Googles Settings if your want to send mail through Google servers?
Add MX entries for Google Apps In server
Google SMTP email settings in Plugin
Otherwise you need to check the possibilities of your server to send email.
