[Admin] Still Haven’t Fixed Comment Notification Issue

Just a note that I’m still looking into the comment notification issue and it’s still not fixed. (I’ve not been receiving blog-related emails for 10 days.)

Here’s what I’ve done so far:

1. Dumped my old Bayesian database and re-set my spam settings so no non-RBLed accounts are getting filtered out.

2. Verified that my domain’s host is not on an RBL list. (That has happened before, quite annoying!)

3. Added the WordPress sender email address to my domain’s email accounts. If you need to change the default WordPress sender, here’s a plugin for that. Amazing that it’s not otherwise configurable!

My guess is that, due to a change in my email provider’s policies, it’s getting caught as an invalid IP address for sending mail for that domain. So I’m digging into that next.
