I’ve just installed freeform and I can send from the Communicate Tab and the email comes to me fine.
But in Freeform no error and no emails.
Checked that the template exists and checked the spelling.
Submitting the form sends me to the correct thankyou page.
Again the dBase entry is being stored fine but no email is getting to me.
Any tips?

Try downloading a fresh copy of Freeform, we’ve made a few updates to it.

Virgil,

Can you send email from the Communicate tab of EE? Do email notifications work on comments and weblog postings?

Hi,

I’m having the same issue: A form submittal will arrive in the DB as an entry but the notify emails aren’t showing up.

I sent a test message within the EE Communicate tab and that worked.

Have used Freeform many times without trouble. I say that so you know I’m not a complete newbie at this.

I’m running EE 1.6.0, Build:  20070918 and Freeform 2.6.1

Hope you can help.

Thanks.

I’m also having the exact same problem.  I just successfully set up FreeForm on an EE Personal license on one site, and I’m now working on another site that uses EE Core.  I copied the code over, made templates and everything, but nothing gets emailed.  I get sent to the thank you page, the message is store in the database for FreeForm, but I get no emails. 

What’s the deal?  Here’s the code I’m using.

{exp:freeform:form form_id="contact" return="contact/thank-you" required="email|message"  notify="me@mydomain.com" template="contact"}

   
<div class="contactfield">
    <
label for="name">Your Name:</label>
    <
input type="text" id="name" name="name" class="formField" size="40" />
   </
div>
  
   <
div class="contactfield">
    <
label for="email">Your Email:</label>
    <
input type="text" id="email" name="email" class="formField"  size="40" />
   </
div>

   <
div class="contactfield">
    <
label for="message">Message:</label>
    <
textarea name="message" id="message" class="formField" rows="12" cols="40"></textarea>
   </
div>
   
   
{if captcha}
    
<div class="contactfield">
     <
label for="captcha_field">Please enter the word you see in the image below:</label>
     <
span id="captcha_img">{captcha}</span>
     <
span id="captcha_arrow"></span>
     <
input type="text" id="captcha_field" name="captcha" value="" maxlength="20" />
     <
div class="clear"></div>
    </
div>
   
{/if}
   
   
<div class="contactfield">
    <
input type="submit" name="Submit" value="Send Message!" class="button" />
   </
div>
  
  
{/exp:freeform:form}
