@Beth Try reviewing this thread on the WordPress support forum. It's what led me to the solution.

Unfortunately, the fix didn’t work for me. I have only noticed this within the last week and thought it might be Gmail and not WordPress. I did 3 test comments and still haven’t received an email-and it’s been 15 minutes. Oh well, I’ll just keep checking the Dashboard, the comments do show there.

@Jason
It surprises me that so many people have been affected by this. Glad to be of help.

@Hopeful Spirit
I wish I could take the credit, but thanks for a nice person on the WordPress support forum, she pointed me the way to the solution. Glad you got it working again.

You’re a genius. This has been driving me nuts. I implemented your solution and, like you, heard the familiar ding of mail coming in.

THANKS!

Hi Lori, I’m not clear on what you’re suggesting as it seems to imply a solution to a different problem. What I was outlining above was that WP was not notifying the owner when a comment was made on their blog. This is a problem with some bloggers who upgraded to 2.3.

Or you could do what I did…create an email that says wordpress@bloggingcents.com and have it forwarded to your email. It works perfectly..of course you put your whatever.com. I was just taught this from Jay at onlineopportunity.org.
