<p>Using SMTP protocol to transfer emails ensures solid operations.<br />
It is very easy to set up SMTP. You can find the settings for this plugin at the bottom of WordPress admin menu Options / General.</p>
<p>You should get your SMTP settings from your ISP, hosting provider, webmaster, email provider etc.</p>
<p>Using every option SMTP URI formally looks like this:</p>
<pre><code>smtpTLS://USERNAME:PASSWORD@HOST:PORT
</code></pre>
<p>Thus encryption type and <code>://</code> and user name and <code>:</code> and password and <code>@</code> and mail server name and <code>:</code> and port number.<br />
All except encryption type and mail server (host name) are optional.</p>
<p>SMTP encryption types are as follows:</p>
<ul>
<li>For encrypted connection (STARTTLS on submission port) start your SMTP URI with <code>smtpTLS://</code> – the default port is 587.</li>
<li>For fully SSL encrypted connection (SMTPS) start it with <code>smtps://</code> – the default port is 465.</li>
<li>For unencrypted connection (plain SMTP) start it with <code>smtp://</code> – the default port is 25. This is <strong>not recommended</strong> for non-local servers.</li>
</ul>
<p><strong>WARNING!</strong> Use <a href="http://meyerweb.com/eric/tools/dencoder/" rel="nofollow ugc">URL-encoded</a> strings.</p>
<p>You can find the settings for this plugin at the bottom of WordPress admin Options / General.</p>
<p>You may define your SMTP URI also in <code>wp-config.php</code>:</p>
<pre><code>define( 'SMTP_URI', 'smtpTLS://USERNAME:PASSWORD@HOST:PORT' );
</code></pre>
<p>To set <code>From:</code> name and <code>From:</code> address use<br />
<a href="https://wordpress.org/plugins/wp-mailfrom-ii/" rel="ugc">WP Mail From II plugin</a>.</p>
<h4>SMTP error logging</h4>
<p>SMTP communication errors are logged in PHP error.log and – if<br />
<a href="https://wordpress.org/plugins/sucuri-scanner/" rel="ugc">Sucuri Scanner</a><br />
plugin is available – are sent to Sucuri and can be viewed in its Alert Logs panel.</p>
<h4>Adding automatic Bcc: address</h4>
<p>An automatic Bcc: address can be set by adding path to SMTP URI: <code>/admin_email</code>.</p>
<h4>SMTP debugging</h4>
<p>Add query string to SMTP URI: <code>?debug</code>.</p>
<p>Debug level can be set by adding a value: <code>?debug=4</code>, possible values: 0,1,2,4</p>
<h4>TODO</h4>
<ul>
<li>Option to skip newsletters: ALO Newsletter, Newsletter, Mailpoet.</li>
<li>Video on installing and setting up this plugin.</li>
<li>Remove <code>smtp_uri</code> option on uninstallation (I hope you won’t uninstall it)</li>
</ul>
<h4>Usage examples</h4>
<p>Unauthenticated local SMTP server on port 25</p>
<pre><code>smtp://localhost
</code></pre>
<p>Unauthenticated local SMTP server on submission port</p>
<pre><code>smtpTLS://localhost
</code></pre>
<p>Authenticated connection to localhost on port 25</p>

</code></pre>

<pre><code>smtps://your.address%40gmail.com:Gmail_password@smtp.gmail.com
</code></pre>
<p>Sendgrid example</p>
<pre><code>smtpTLS://CREDENTIAL-USERNAME:PASSWORD@smtp.sendgrid.net
</code></pre>
