You read the linked post?

Especially this part?

User registration process is under WordPress control, not wpForo.

@tutrix yes, there they are speaking about to FROM: mail but I am speaking about the TO: name ... I mean, if a new user is registering, I aspect that the email addreses specified into the wpforo config mail section https://ibb.co/9Nn9d2Q they will receive the alert ... but the mail that is receiving right not is the admin mail of the wordpress installation... 

I think I am not explined well enought the problem ... sorry

@angelolazzari,

If you add an email in Forum Admins Email Addresses field, does that email get new User Reg email?

@chris thank you for your reply. 

No, the only user that is getting that mail is the WP isntallation admin mail, the one that is set into the mail wordpress isntallation setting page... NONE of the Forum Admins Email Addresses is receiving the email.

That's why I opened this ticket.

@angelolazzari,

If you have any plugins related to the emails, please deactivate them and try again.

@chris good morning. I got only POST SMTP plugin to set the smtp settings of my email server, I disactivated it, tested again but no changes.

Thanks

@angelolazzari The email IN wpForo is for FORUM SPECIFIC emails.

As you have been told, New users registration is handled by Wordpress. Not wpForo.

@dimalifragis thank you, I didn't see your reply till now. 

Ok, I am ok with that, but, I selected that the wpforo registration of a new user has to be moderated, so, I thought, because is a wpforo setting ( the moderation thing) I would aspect that the email will arrive to the forum admins, not to the wp admin.... that's it... I think is a more correct behaving... no?

@angelolazzari,

Please navigate to Dashboard > Settings > General Settings, and see Administration Email Address field, I guess this is what you need.

@chris thanks. But I want the mail in the image to receive the notification, not the wordpress installation admin mail. 

The image email accounts, are there for that no? or which the aim of those emails?

Thanks

Angelo
