Overview

This plugin reconfigures the wp_mail() function to use SMTP instead of mail() and creates an options page that allows you to specify various options.

You can set the following options:

  • Specify the from name and email address for outgoing email.
  • Choose to send mail by SMTP or PHP’s mail() function.
  • Specify an SMTP host (defaults to localhost).
  • Specify an SMTP port (defaults to 25).
  • Choose SSL / TLS encryption (not the same as STARTTLS).
  • Choose to use SMTP authentication or not (defaults to not).
  • Specify an SMTP username and password.

Also adds subject to headers for SendGrid Activity Screen. SengGrid is a powerful SMTP service, however it’s Activity Log screen misses the message subjects. Our plugin adds that back in!
