the website I’m building is in godaddy and they don’t accept php emails.
Is there any other way I can get the emails sent from contact form?

Thank you,

Isadora

Not sure I understand… Of course godaddy would allow php mail function they wouldn’t be much of a hosting if they didn’t, and that’s what the contact form uses too, it’s the wp_mail function that itself uses the php mail function, you can see it inside contact.php template. :)
Maybe it’s a setting or smth that you have wrong? What seems to be the problem?

The contact form works beautifully! I’ve tested sending it to my gmail and hotmail (I know…) and I’ve always gotten the email back. However, I need to be able to send this form to an email that is hosted by godaddy. They have a security system that sees e-mails sent by php as spam and do not receive it. They told me I’d need to use SMTP. Does it make sense? Sorry if it’s not so clear, I didn’t know about it until now, so it’s pretty new to me. I’ve always used register.com.

Thanks for explaining. :)
You could possibly try https://bg.wordpress.org/plugins/wp-mail-smtp/
or google any other alternatives to use SMTP for your wp_mail function.
Good luck! :)
