in the log it says email sent... to the address I set (most of the time sometimes there is nothing about me sending the log)..but nothing is recieved. I have even added a 2nd address for testing and nothing is recieved.my smtp is not Gmail so using normal pw. I have double triple checked the smtp address and port numbers and verified the password.
