    Hello,

    The auto responder for my form seems to not be working. https://form.jotform.com/62955530320249

    Any idea why?

    Thank You,

     

    James

    I have just tested your form and I received the email auto-responder, here is a screenshot of it:

    Please do note that if you're using the test button in the email auto-responder the email will be sent to the email address you've set up in your account. 

    May be also that the email address you're testing is in our bounce list, when an email is in our bounce list none of the emails sent from JotForm will be received.

    In order to check this, please take a look to the next guide so you can check and if you find the email address there you can remove it: How-to-Remove-Your-Email-Address-from-Bounce-List

    If you find and remove the email address from our bounce list, please test again and let us know the results of your test.

    Thank You Kevin. The email address I was using was on the bounce list. I removed it and everything is working normally. Thanks again.

    Great! Glad to hear that you are now receiving emails. :)

    If your email address keeps going in the bounce list, you can use your SMTP to send the emails http://www.jotform.com/help/244-How-to-Setup-SMTP-for-a-Form.
