Contact Form 7 and Bluehost

February 1, 2014 by Eric Wagner 2 Comments

I’m finally writing this down after having to google for it for two clients in the past two months.

When the Contact Form 7 plugin for WordPress won’t send emails from a website hosted with Bluehost, try the following:

  • Log in to the Bluehost cPanel
  • Under the Mail heading click on MX Entry
  • Select the domain you are trying to send email to
  • Press the More button under MX (Mail Exchanger)
  • Select Remote Mail Exchanger

    Good day! I know this is kind of off topic but I was wondering if you knew
    where I could get a captcha plugin for my comment form? I’m using the same blog platform as yours and I’m having problems finding one?
    Thanks a lot!

      Nestor,

      I’ve used the SI CAPTCHA Anti-Spam plugin before with good success.
