I have noticed this issue occurring after this weekend. I am currently working on this issue now.
This seems to be a problem with WordPress and/or your server configuration. I just tested another plugin and it cannot sends emails either.
Other subscribe plugins work fine! Yesterday and today I tested at least 6.
I use Email Subscribers plugin now. https://wordpress.org/plugins/email-subscribers/
it’s all ok (but it is not exactly what I need)
I have verified that OSD Subscribe works on live sites. However, OSD Subscribe leverages wordpress’s wp_mail function. Therefore, if WordPress/PHPMailer/ or PHP’s mail function have any problems with their configuration, this plugin will not work properly. Testing a site on localhost may or may not work depending on how your configuration is set up. Some other plugins work differently. All the ones I have seen leverage the same wp_mail function. I cannot find an issue with the plugin, but I apologize you are having these issues.
Will this issue ever be fixed? having the same problem… do you atlas recommend a similar plugin?
washburne,
Unless you are having this problem on a live site, there is nothing we can do aside from rewriting the plugin to use a different email implementation. This is not an issue with the plugin, but instead a problem with local development configurations. We are not supporting this plugin due to it being considered bad practice to email from a WordPress installation. I recommend you use OSD Mailchimp forms along with a free mailchimp account or find another plugin that suits your needs. I hope this information was helpful.
