<h3>External Services</h3>
This plugin is designed to process and store form data locally on your server by default. It only connects to the following third-party external services if explicitly enabled or opted-in by the site administrator:
<ol>
<li>Cloudflare Turnstile API (Optional – Disabled by Default)</li>
</ol>
* Purpose: Used to verify form submissions and distinguish human visitors from automated malicious spam bots. It is only active if the administrator checks the “Enable Cloudflare Turnstile” box in settings and inputs their API keys. 
* Data Transmitted: The user’s browser challenge token and remote IP address are securely sent to Cloudflare to process the validation request. 
* Links: <a href="https://www.cloudflare.com/website-terms/" rel="nofollow ugc">Cloudflare Terms of Service</a> | <a href="https://www.cloudflare.com/privacypolicy/" rel="nofollow ugc">Cloudflare Privacy Policy</a>
<ol>
<li>Akismet API (Optional – Disabled by Default)</li>
</ol>
* Purpose: Provides cloud-based behavioral analysis to detect and block malicious form submissions. It is only active if the administrator checks the “Enable Akismet spam protection” box in settings. 
* Data Transmitted: The submitter’s name, email address, IP address, user agent, and form message content are securely sent to the Akismet API (operated by Automattic) to analyze the submission’s spam status. 
* Links: <a href="https://akismet.com/tos/" rel="nofollow ugc">Akismet Terms of Service</a> | <a href="https://automattic.com/privacy/" rel="nofollow ugc">Akismet Privacy Policy</a>
<ol>
<li>Freemius SDK (Optional – Opt-In upon Activation)</li>
</ol>
* Purpose: Handles optional opt-in developer connection diagnostics, premium software license activation, secure monetization checkouts, and premium version update notifications. 
* Data Transmitted: Only if explicitly opted-in by the administrator during activation, it securely transmits public WordPress environment metrics (WordPress version, active theme, active plugins list) and administrative profile details. For Pro upgrades, it processes secure API license key lookups.

WP SMTP Mailer – SMTP7

Takes 2 minutes (at most) to set up and works perfectly.

Quick and handy

Good plugin


It's a no-nonsense way to set up SMTP. I use Brevo for the relay server. They have a nice free tier. Combined with Brevos's easy-to-find API key, it's no sweat to have emails sent from your domain. For example, From address: your.name@yourdomain.com From name: Head Editor 



Getting an email sent to you@yourdomain.com is a whole other can of worms. But it's nice that this plugin doesn't have that. It keeps the settings simple.


Simple yet effective
