VR SMTP Mailer replaces the default WordPress mail transport with SMTP or an OAuth-based mail API, with full support for Microsoft 365 (Office365), Outlook SMTP, and Microsoft Graph API.
It is designed as a complete email solution for WordPress — combining SMTP delivery, OAuth authentication, and API-based sending in a single plugin, without requiring multiple paid extensions.
<h3>Why choose this plugin</h3>
<ul>
<li>Works with Microsoft 365 / Office365 and Outlook SMTP</li>
<li>Supports both SMTP and OAuth (Graph API) in one plugin</li>
<li>No need to install multiple plugins for authentication and email delivery</li>
<li>Designed to work as a full wp_mail replacement</li>
<li>Includes features commonly available only in paid plugins</li>
<li>No subscriptions or locked features</li>
</ul>
Send emails using either SMTP or an OAuth-based mail API (Graph-compatible). 
Works with wp_mail() (for immediate sends): 
When WordPress sends emails through this plugin, it keeps the same structure as the default wp_mail() function. This includes support for multiple recipients, subject, message body, headers (From, Cc, Bcc, Reply-To, Content-Type), attachments, and inline images where supported. 
Standard WordPress filters like wp_mail, wp_mail_from, wp_mail_content_type, and phpmailer_init are applied in SMTP mode, so behavior remains consistent with native WordPress email handling. 
Graph API limitations: 
When using the Graph API, emails support HTML or plain text content, along with To, Cc, Bcc, and Reply-To fields. Attachments and inline images are supported, but typically limited to around 3 MB per file. 
Custom MIME headers are not fully supported, and only standard fields are mapped to the API. More complex email structures may behave differently compared to traditional PHP mail handling. 
Email queue (WP-Cron): 
Emails can be queued and processed later using WP-Cron. Queued emails store only basic details such as recipient, subject, and message body. Attachments, headers, and inline images are not included in queued jobs. 
Automatic OAuth token refresh: 
Access tokens are refreshed automatically to ensure uninterrupted email delivery. 
Secure OAuth handling: 
Token exchange (authorization code to access/refresh tokens) is restricted to users with administrator-level permissions (manage_options). You must be logged in as an admin when completing the OAuth connection. 
Testing tools included: 
Includes a built-in test email feature and an SMTP connection tester to help verify configuration. 
Logging and debugging: 
Email activity and debug information are stored in custom database tables for troubleshooting and monitoring.
Security and stored secrets
This plugin stores SMTP passwords, OAuth client secrets, refresh tokens, and access tokens in the WordPress options table, using the same approach as most WordPress settings. These values are not encrypted at rest.
Anyone with access to the database, a full site backup, or an administrator account could potentially view this information. It’s recommended to use strong admin credentials, secure hosting, and limit your app permissions to only what is required.

Do not use Microsoft or related logos, branding, or visual assets in your plugin icon, banner, or screenshots on WordPress.org. Use your own branding and neutral visuals.
Third-party services
This plugin connects to external services only when required for email delivery or authentication. It does not send general site traffic or unrelated data to third parties.
Microsoft identity platform (OAuth2) — login.microsoftonline.com
What it is 
This is Microsoft’s OAuth2 authentication service (also known as the Microsoft Identity Platform or Entra ID). It is used when you connect your account using OAuth.
What it is used for
Signing in through Microsoft 
Exchanging authorization codes for access and refresh tokens 
Refreshing expired access tokens
What data is sent and when
During login (via browser): client ID, redirect URI, requested scopes (such as Mail.Send, User.Read), and a state parameter for security 
During token exchange (server-side): authorization code, client ID, client secret, redirect URI, grant type, and scopes

Sending emails using your SMTP credentials.
What data is sent and when 
Whenever an email is sent (including test emails), the plugin transmits:
SMTP credentials (if configured) 
Email content such as recipients, subject, and message body
This plugin does not control or manage the infrastructure of your SMTP provider.

<h4>Support ending</h4>
= Support ending =
Early November 2022, ownership of the Mail Integration for Office 365 / Outlook plugin transferred to <a href="https://www.wpo365.com/" rel="nofollow ugc">WPO365</a>. We are committed to provide (best-effort based) support for this plugin until the end of 2023.
To ensure, however, that we are able to provide you with long time support, we urge you to download and install the <a href="https://wordpress.org/plugins/wpo365-msgraphmailer/" rel="ugc">WPO365 | MICROSOFT GRAPH MAILER</a> plugin for WordPress instead (and de-activate the Mail Integration for Office 365 / Outlook plugin and remove it from your WordPress website).
If you have already installed and configured the Mail Integration for Office 365 / Outlook plugin, then please make sure to check out our easy-to-understand <a href="https://docs.wpo365.com/article/165-migrate-from-mail-integration-for-office-365-outlook-to-wpo365-microsoft-graph-mailer" rel="nofollow ugc">online migration</a> guide.

<h4>About this plugin</h4>
Mail Integration for Office 365/Outlook (using OAuth2 and Microsoft’s Graph API rather than SMTP)
This plugin addresses the limitations of current free SMTP plugins, allowing you to send email from WordPress via your Microsoft Account and ensure your email gets delivered reliably, avoiding the spam box! Note, unlike other free SMTP plugins, this one authenticates with the Microsoft Graph API rather than SMTP using OAuth2. This addresses the recent change by Microsoft to disable basic authentication over SMTP (i.e. username and password), preventing other free SMTP plugins from working with Microsoft Accounts. Unfortunately, Microsoft has yet to enable their Graph API to work with the free versions of Outlook, Live, Hotmail etc. The plugin should however work with the paid for personal and business versions of Office 365, Outlook and Microsoft Exchange.
