- differentiate data sets while sending it to multiple recipients;
- add the information about the emails sent to log;
- add some text before or after the message body;
- replace sender’s text, name (field From Name), subject, and even the recipients if needed.
You can set the following options:
- Specify the form name and email address for the outgoing email.
- Specify the email(s) of recipient (s).
- Specify the text that could be prepended to the message body.
- Choose to send the mail by SMTP or PHP’s mail() function.
- Specify the SMTP settings: host, port, username and password.
- Choose SSL / TLS encryption (different from STARTTLS).
- Choose to use of SMTP authentication or not (as it is by default).

FAQ
-
My plugin still sends mail via the mail() function
-
If other plugins that you’re using are not designed to use the
wp_mail()
function and call PHP’smail()
function directly, they will skip the settings of this plugin. As the matter of fact, you can edit other plugins and replace the βmail(
β calls with βwp_mail(
β (by adding wp_ in front) and this will work. We performed tests on a couple of plugins and it worked, but it may not work with all plugins. -
Will this plugin work with WordPress versions less than 2.7?
-
No. The options page will only work on 2.7 version and higher.
-
Can I use this plugin to send emails via Gmail / Google Apps
-
Yes. Use the following settings:
- Mailer: SMTP
- SMTP Host: smtp.gmail.com
- SMTP Port: 587
- Encryption: TLS
- Authentication: Yes
- Username: your Gmail account name

Note: adjust your Gmail account’s security settings for it to enable Google service of sending emails via SMTP
