Activation email to change admin address not being sent to Gsuite email account

I changed my admin email in the WordPress dashboard I'm using to create a website and it's just not sending out the email to confirm changes. The domain is hosted through BlueHost and the domain email I'm trying to use is at a Gsuite account.

I'm trying to set up plugins and they are asking for my email so before I set up too many features I want to get my email updated. I keep seeing: If you change this, we will send you an email at your new address to confirm it. The new address will not become active until confirmed. There is a pending change of your email to [email protected].

No email ever came through and no, it's not in the spam folder. I also went to https://wordpress.com/support/contact/ and tried to use the Resend Activation Email feature under Trouble Activating? but when I click on Resend Activation nothing happens.

Thanks for any help!

I have relatively less knowledge range of this topic hope my case from yesterday can provide you with some little hint.

In my case the verification email did come through in a minute as, from: WordPress [email protected] via netorgft680****.onmicrosoft.com

And I am using GoDaddy/Installatron to deploy my WP sites where if it is an email sent via host internal mail service it should be via *****.secureserver.net as per service operated by GoDaddy.

The WordPress verification email is clearly not from my host mail server as it is from some Microsoft O365 based service.


Fixed by installing and setting up the WP Mail SMTP Plugin
