SMTP Mailer

A bloat-free plugin that just sends SMTP emails as advertised. Great job Developers.

Minimalistic, Does the job


This is THE plugin you need to send e-mails. Forget about WPForms, Easy WP SMTP (after their upgrade it got super-bloated) or others. You just need to send e-mails, and this is the plugin to do it. Easy and lightweight.


The #1 SMTP plugin today


In the world of WP plugins, it's easy to get bogged down by bloated, feature-rich options. This plugin is a refreshing departure from that trend. It's lean, mean, and focused on doing one thing exceptionally well: sending emails.


Best SMTP plugin

Configure a SMTP server to send email from your WordPress site. Configure the wp_mail() function to use SMTP instead of the PHP mail() function.

<p>SDK WP SMTP can help us to send emails via SMTP instead of the PHP mail() function.<br />
It adds a settings page to “Dashboard”->”Settings”->”SDk WP SMTP” where you can configure the email settings.<br />
There are some examples on the settings page, you can click the corresponding icon to view (such as “Gmail””Yahoo!””Microsoft””163″”QQ”).<br />
If the field “From” was not a valid email address, or the field “SMTP Host” was left blank, it will not reconfigure the wp_mail() function.</p>
