I and my users are not receiving mail Notifications

1. I highly recommend installing WP Mail SMTP by WPForms plugin to resolve email not sending problems.
2. Emails are scheduled to be sent daily using WP Cron which is only activated when the site is visited. Meaning if your site is dormant for the day, the scheduled mails will not be sent.
