Please replace the ??? with your data!
[desc]: I made a simple form to try this out and haven't had any success. At first I would enter form info and click submit and everything seemed to look great!! I could see the entry in my tracking and everything. But, no delivery of the form information. Then after looking around I found the smtp setting so I called my hosting account support and they gave me the settings and said that the php should work as well. Once I put the smtp settings in it seems that the form gets stuck in a loading issue. I never get a confirmation of send and enver get a message in email.
I also have wp-email and no success as well.
I changed the email in wp, cform and wp-email to my gmail account and still no success. I repeated same using smtp settings as well. I'm new to wp and cforms, but I am pretty good and following directions and figuring things out. I have installed many plug ins with success, but the two most important to my blog are stumping me for 2 days now. I appreciate your help and direction.

I can't see a form nor any presence at all under the above URL.
But if your WP install can't send email at all something indeed is wrong, your provider should help to get the ball rolling.

Oliver all they told me to do was uninstall it and reinstall it. I am giving it another try. I'm wondering is there some sort of a on switch in wp for php mail?

Of course, …
They should be able to tell you if there are any specific requirements around sending emails: e.g. does the FROM address have to be on the same domain, etc.
PHP Mail() works out of the box, there is nothing to configure.
If they also support SMTP, it may be worth a try: but they need to tell you all the parameters necessary for a porper SMTP configuration (take a look at the cforms options)

I tried the smtp config and it just stalled on me. I'm wondering if it is because I am using a different domain name. I will ask them. Im a bit of a backyard guy. I like to figure things out and I was on my way until I got hung up with the email issue. Once I get past this, I am sure that I will be off and running. I used a form that was available through my other website to accomplish the same thing. Here is the link. http://www.digitalparadise.tv/Contact_Us.html Until I get things working its the best I can do. I will keep ya posted with my progress. thanks for your help Oliver.
