Hi,
I recently setup my blog at a new domain and have been having problems with getting WP Backup to send emails.
Here are the main details/steps:
1. I'm running WordPress 2.3.3 and WP Backup 2.1.5
2. The blog is hosted at a sub-domain, i.e., blog.balaji-dutt.name
3. I have created an email address for wordpress - <code>wordpress@balaji-dutt.name</code>
<code>wordpress@balaji-dutt.name</code>
4. The mail is being sent to another account within the same domain, so not much chance of being caught by spam filters.
4. The size limit attachment for the email accounts is 20 MB.
5. Running the backup manually shows that a file is successfully created in backup-xxxxx directory.
6. I have tried the workarounds suggested in this TRAC
- Commented the line in pluggable.php for wp_email_from and tried to send the mail.
- Uploaded, activated the no-sender plugin then tried to email the backup (wp_email_from was not commented).
I can't think of what else to check / do but the email just doesn't appear. Please help!
for what it is worth, I had the same problem but got it running again by adding the following at line 715 of the plugin:
$phpmailer->Sender = apply_filters( 'wp_mail_from', $from_email );
I had to do the same to the pluggable.php file when upgrading to wp 2.3.3. It may not solve your problem, but thought I would mention it.
