Hi Ray. Recently I moved my domain from a server at my house to godaddy. The reason? Hotmail would not accept emails from my domain because it was on a dynamic IP. Now it seems I am having a similar problem. Sending to gmail or yahoo mail is not a problem from Patrick Today!
I did a few tests. When signing up for a new account on my domain and a hotmail (or live in my case) address is used the email never arrives, not even to the junk mail folder. It is as if it were never sent. You can see the problem since someone coming to my site and signing up won't get a confirmation email I lose potential site members. I then went to the site contact form plugin and sent a test email. It never showed up.
Here is what is getting me. When I signed up the first time I used patrick.lindsey@live.com everything went fine. I signed up to Patrick Today! and became a member (test account). Now it's blocked and as far as I can tell so are any other hotmail or live accounts.
I did another test. If I go to email.patricktoday.com and send an email from admin@patricktoday.com it arrives... to the junkmail folder, but does arrive.
The sites default email is from admin@patricktoday.com as well. My guess is the mail is coming from different IP's
Maybe there is a hotmail blacklist. IDK. I am stuck. Any advice you have is welcome so thanks in advance.
