    Hello,

    We’re using the WP-Mail-SMTP plugin that is working fine for our site’s buddypress registration/password change notifications. But, none of the Geodir emails such as claim listing, are being sent or received. I’ve tried setting the return email address to be the same email address as the emails that are working, but that didn’t help. If I change the smtp plugin’s setting to use the PHP mail() function, the geodir emails are sent. But, that defeats the purpose of using the plugin.

    Hi Lynne,

    We use the standard wp_mail function, it should work, i use these guys (they have a wp plugin) for my sites: https://www.sparkpost.com/ and it works fine.

    I got the geodir emails to be sent by removing the MIME-Version:1.0 from the header of the geodir email(s). (i.e. I modified the geodir email sending code).

    According to the wp_mail reference: “…The [wp_mail] function will figure it out and will build the proper Mime header automagically.” So, the MIME doesn’t need to be specified. Other plugins do not set the Mime header. Other plugins are not setting the MIME in the header and they work fine with the wp smtp plugin. Could you check and update the geodir code to not set this MIME type?

    ALSO, I found a geodir claim plugin bug: the claim listing email that is supposed to be sent to the administrator(s), is being sent to the ‘fromEmail’ as specified in geodir settings.
    This is the incorrect line of code (in geodir_claim_functions.php):
    $sent = wp_mail($fromEmail, $subject, $client_message, $headers); // To site admin email

    Hi Lynne,

    Thanks,
