Email not sent from forms
Permalink 1 user found helpful
Just installed the Reliance Theme for my new church website. I have created a standard form on the contact page. I have checked the box to have an email sent to me when a user submits the form. I am using the Default PHP Mail settings. When I test them, I get an email and everything looks fine. However, when I fill out the contact form, I do not get an email. My log looks like this:
**EMAILS ARE ENABLED. THIS EMAIL WAS SENT TO mail()**

I had the similar problem and Andrew suggested to check the spam folder. I found the test submissions there. I am using my Gmail address as the site's admin address and I am also using the same address in form's options. Apparently Google marks it as spam.

Found a solution. Add this to your Config/site.php file:
define('EMAIL_DEFAULT_FROM_ADDRESS', 'email@email.com');
define('EMAIL_DEFAULT_FROM_NAME', 'Any Name');
define('FORM_BLOCK_SENDER_EMAIL', 'email@email.com');
Replace 'email@email.com' with the email address you use.
This worked on two sites i have....
define('EMAIL_DEFAULT_FROM_ADDRESS', 'email@email.com');
define('EMAIL_DEFAULT_FROM_NAME', 'Any Name');
define('FORM_BLOCK_SENDER_EMAIL', 'email@email.com');
Replace 'email@email.com' with the email address you use.

Thank you. However, that does not work in 5.7 anymore as the configurations are not located in config/site.php and also constant variables are not used anymore.
I found the settings in concrete/config/concrete.php file. Perhaps not the best way to do it (especially when having multiple sites with same core), but it worked in my case. In addition, I added the email address used in c5 to my Gmail's contacts list and now form submissions are sent to my Inbox folder instead of spam.

Please check your spam folder
