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.

The <a href="https://kibb.in/ssmtp" rel="nofollow ugc">Simple SMTP Mailer</a> plugin allows you to easily configure WordPress to use SMTP instead of the PHP mail function.
This should only really be used in a development environment.
<h3>Simple SMTP Mailer Settings</h3>
<ul>
<li>Host: The mail server (Defaults to smtp.gmail.com)</li>
<li>Username: The username used for connecting to the SMTP server</li>
<li>Password: The password used for connecting to the SMTP server</li>
<li>Port: The port to use when sending an email (587, 465 or 25. Defaults to 587)</li>
<li>Security: The type of encryption security to use when sending an email (TLS or SSL. Defaults to TLS)</li>
<li>Debug: Enable debugging</li>
</ul>
All settings can be overridden by assigning array values to the SSMTP_MAILER constant in wp-config.php. This is useful for automating local deployment.
<pre><code>define(
 'SSMTP_MAILER',
 array(
 'host' => emailhost.com,
 'username' => username,
 'password' => password,
 'port' => 25,
 'security' => 'SSL'
 )
);
</code></pre>
