Why Your Contact Form May Not Be Working

If your contact form is not sending emails, it may be due to a misconfiguration of your email settings. Ensure that either the sender or recipient email is hosted in the Email Manager of your Control Panel.

Key Requirements

• Email Location: At least one email address (sender or recipient) must be hosted on this server.
• Correct Email Setup: Check that the recipient email is present in the Email Manager.

Testing Email Sending with PHP Mail Function

Try sending a test email using a simple PHP script. Replace "[email protected]" with your hosted email address:

If "MAIL FAILED" appears, please contact support.

Ensuring Correct Sendmail Path

If you’re using Sendmail, verify that the path is set correctly in your script:

/usr/sbin/sendmail

Updating this path in your script may resolve mail-sending issues.
