Flamingo is a message storage plugin originally created for <a href="https://wordpress.org/plugins/contact-form-7/" rel="ugc">Contact Form 7</a>, which doesn’t store submitted messages.
After activation of the plugin, you’ll find Flamingo on the WordPress admin screen menu. All messages through contact forms are listed there and are searchable. With Flamingo, you no longer need to worry about losing important messages due to mail server issues or misconfiguration in mail setup.
For more detailed information, please refer to the <a href="https://contactform7.com/save-submitted-messages-with-flamingo/" rel="nofollow ugc">Contact Form 7 documentation page</a>.
<h4>Privacy Notices</h4>
This plugin stores submission data collected through contact forms, which may include the submitters’ personal information, in the database on the server that hosts the website.

I love this plugin.
One thing I would like is that I don't like the sidebar in the admin panel to be overwhelmed.
It would be nice if there is an option to place it within the ContactForm7 items in the side menu.

love this plugin.

The little companion to Contact Forms 7 that keeps a copy of all form submissions in case the generated email gets lost. Now nothing can get lost.
