WP Mail SMTP SendGrid Edition
This plugin reconfigures the wp_mail() function to use SMTP instead of mail() and creates an options page that allows you to specify various options.
You can set the following options:
- Specify the from name and email address for outgoing email.
- Choose to send mail by SMTP or PHP’s mail() function.
- Specify an SMTP host (defaults to localhost).
- Specify an SMTP port (defaults to 25).
- Choose SSL / TLS encryption (not the same as STARTTLS).
- Choose to use SMTP authentication or not (defaults to not).
- Specify an SMTP username and password.
Also adds subject to headers for SendGrid Activity Screen. SengGrid is a powerful SMTP service, however it’s Activity Log screen misses the message subjects. Our plugin adds that back in!
