I moved my website to DO 2 days ago (using one-click wordpress installation), I have a contact form using Contact 7 plugin for wrodpress. at first it was working but sending the email took around 30+secs. So I thought restarting the droplet will fix this.
Actually after restarting the droplet it stopped working & now it give me “Failed to send your message. Please try later or contact the administrator by another method.” error, how can I fix this? it was working properly on my previous hosting.

SSH into your droplet and run the following command: <br> <br><pre>echo test | mail your@emailaddress.com</pre> <br>Do you get the email address? What’s the output of said command?

But it was working before restarting the droplet so I don’t think I need this
