    Hi,

    I am getting notifications email like new friendship, comments, etc.. but can’t get new registration activation email.

    I’ve install facebook-login plugin and seems like it blocked buddypress registration mail I think. However, when I deleted this plugin I still couldn’t get activation email.

    I tried to repair buddypress from Tools->Buddypress and still have this problem

    Also I am using WP-Mail-SMTP for this email actions.

    My budyypress version is 2.6.1.1

    Thanks

    Do other BuddyPress emails get sent?
    Do WordPress emails get sent? (comment notification, new user registration, etc).

    I’ve deleted and reinstalled WP-Mail-SMTP, changed the notification email and reconfigured all mx and spf settings on hosting and now I don’t have problem anymore

    Thanks

    Thank you for the pointer, I fixed my email sending issue by installing WP-Mail-SMTP plugin,

    I set it to Send all WordPress emails via SMTP.
    I ticked Set the return-path to match the From Email.

    I’m using cPanel email so I logged into my cPanel email and clicked Set Up Mail Client link
    You’ll see the username and password and port you need to put in the plugin config.

    SMTP Port: local
    SMTP Port: the outgoing port
    For encryption I selected use SSL as I have the free SSL installed for cPanel.

    Yes: Use SMTP authentication.

    Username: your email address
    Password: Email password

    And that’s it.

    Now new users who register an account are getting the email to activate their own accounts.

    Jesus why didn’t I notice this earlier but the old plugin I was using is broke: WP Mail From II
