Why WordPress is not sending emails?

There can be some reasons why your emails don’t reach users, they land in spam, or are not sent at all!

💡 First, try sending a test email to check if there is an issue with the server or spam filters.

If that doesn’t work, you might need to contact your email provider as they may need additional information from you such as:

  • SMTP details,
  • your email configuration,
  • or SSL certificates.

It’s also possible that you miss emails in general, as WordPress is not sending many emails.

💡 You may also read more on why WooCommerce is not sending emails.

By default, you get a WordPress email when you register, ask for a password reset, or do some actions to get admin email notifications (for example, changing the admin email). But you cannot customize or check if they’re sent.

How will ShopMagic help you with WordPress emails?

What’s more, you can check, track, and see all emails with ShopMagic analytics tools.

Queue

First, you can see all emails awaiting sending.

Shopmagic Queue
Find future emails to be sent in WordPress
💡 So, in the Queue tab you’ll see a list of all future actions that were scheduled.

✅ This is especially useful if you delay your emails, but it can also be useful in other situations because all ShopMagic actions are queued with the use of Action Scheduler.

Unless you decided to skip the queue (which you can, by the way), all actions are added to the queue until they are fired 🚀.

If you decided to turn off adding actions to the queue, they won’t show up there (which is obvious, right?).

Outcomes

Next, you may also check if WordPress is sending new emails:

Shopmagic Outcomes Logs
Is WordPress not sending emails? Now you can see everything!
💡 Outcomes are ShopMagic logs which you can use to check which actions were fired and when, if it was emailed, to whom it was sent, and a few more handy things.

⬇️ This is where you find it in ShopMagic’s menu ⬇️

Email tracker

Also, you may check the results of your email automation campaigns in one place (per automation and customer)!

Track Emails For Email Automation In WordPress And Woocommerce

That’s a great way to see the effects of your custom emails, so you may learn what works and what to optimize! It’s also possible to see the results in the main dashboard of the plugin.

Test emails

Finally, you may send a test email to see if WordPress is not sending your emails either.

To do that, open one of your automation with an email action and test its delivery.
