Email Notification for Private Messages Not Sending

    Hi BuddyPress Support Team,

    We’ve run into an issue with BuddyPress email notifications specifically with “A member receives a new private message”.

    1.) Private Messaging is enabled in BuddyPress Settings.
    2.) I created an email with the trigger “A member receives a new private message.”
    3.) To test, I sent a private message as another user. The test message does appear in the BuddyPress Private Message inbox of the recipient, so messaging itself is working.
    4.) However, the email notification is never triggered.

    For troubleshooting, I installed a mail logging plugin, and there are no logs showing BuddyPress attempting to send the notification email when a private message is received. We’ve tested this multiple times but the email notification for trigger “A member receives a new private message” is not working.

    Could you please confirm if this is a known issue or if additional configuration is required to get this notification working?

    Thank you for your assistance!

    Is item #2 a custom email that you created and if so, how did you create it, i.e., what steps did you take?

    FYI – Typically “mail logging” plugins log mail sent via wp_mail() (WordPress) and by default BuddyPress doesn’t use WordPress to send emails thus they won’t show in those logs.
