title: Wordpress: Admin-Ajax.php sending out emails not sure why
body: <p>I've been having this issue lately with my admin-ajax.php file and I'm not sure why. On my Wordpress site, I've been using the page-builder plugin Elementor. I save my progress quite frequently, and checking the developer console in Google Chrome, I can see that with every save the plugin makes a call to my admin-ajax.php file. Apparently, every time I do this it's causing an email to be sent out (to where and to whom I'm not sure) and my hosting is contacting me about receiving a large (spam) number of emails from my file and are asking me to disable my admin-ajax.php file. The problem is I can't because I won't be able to save my progress. </p>
  
  <p>Is there anyway I can take out any of the code below so there won't be an email sent out every time I save or anything I can do? my admin-ajax.php code is posted below as is. I look forward to any help. Thanks </p>
