SureMail – SMTP and Email Logs Plugin… Reviews

by Boat

This is great plugin!

Used this plugin on several projects and I’m very happy with it. The only thing I don’t love is the new admin menu placement in v1.9, having it on the top level feels a bit cluttered. The old location

Another great product from Brainstorm

Setup was quick and working is seamless.
