Double opt‑in confirmation emails not being sent on my site.

Hello — I need help: my confirmation emails for double opt‑in are not being sent.

Plugins: Fluent Forms, FluentCRM, FluentSMTP (Hostinger SMTP)
SMTP: smtp.hostinger.com, Port 465 (SSL) (test email from FluentSMTP sends successfully)
Problem: When someone submits the newsletter form a contact is created in FluentCRM with status Pending, but the confirmation email never arrives. There is no confirmation email in FluentCRM email logs. I have tested that SMTP works (FluentSMTP test email delivered).
What I expect: After form submission the double opt‑in confirmation email should be generated and sent automatically so the contact can confirm and become Subscribed.
What happens instead: Contact is created as Pending and no confirmation email is sent. I have checked From Email matches SMTP username and tried running scheduled actions manually.

What I have to do? Please help!

Thank you!

Shahjahan Jewel They are there. States that the emails are SENT. While they have not actually arrived. I have tried with 2 different emails. They have not even arrive into junk folder.

Marelle I see you are using your hosting's SMTP which is really unreliable. Please use a real email sending service that supports API, logging etc.
