Post SMTP Pro

WordPress sends email with a default mail function that often lacks proper authentication, so messages such as order notices, form submissions and password resets can land in spam or vanish. Post SMTP Pro replaces that method with an authenticated SMTP connection through the mail service you choose, including Gmail, Office 365, Amazon SES and Mailgun.

A setup wizard walks you through the configuration step by step, so you do not need much technical knowledge. After that, email logs show every message sent and every failure, and notifications tell you when something goes wrong. If the main connection fails, the plugin can try an alternative SMTP server. Developers can also adjust behavior through hooks and filters.

Features

• Secure SMTP authentication: Emails go out through an authenticated SMTP connection instead of the default WordPress mail function, which helps them avoid being marked as spam.
• Choice of mail providers: Connect Gmail, Office 365, Amazon SES, Mailgun and other services, so you can keep using the mail provider you already prefer.
• Step-by-step setup wizard: A guided wizard takes you through the email settings in order, which makes configuration approachable for beginners and quicker for experienced users.
• Detailed email logs: Review a record of every email sent and every email that failed, which makes it easier to find and troubleshoot delivery problems.
• Failure notifications: Get an alert when email delivery problems occur, so you can act quickly instead of finding out later that messages never arrived.
• Fallback email routing: If the primary SMTP connection fails, the plugin tries alternative SMTP servers so your site's emails keep going out.
• OAuth 2.0 support: Authenticate with major email providers using OAuth 2.0, which adds protection against unauthorized access to your mail connection.
• Customizable headers and hooks: Adjust email headers to match your branding, and use hooks and filters to fit the plugin into specific workflows.
