## Kuvaus

Are you struggling with WordPress not sending emails correctly? Simple SMTP by [Maileroo](https://maileroo.com)
is here to solve that! This plugin is designed to ensure your WordPress emails are
sent reliably and efficiently, using your preferred SMTP service.

We aim to simplify and secure email delivery, ensuring your messages consistently
land in the inbox. Simple SMTP by Maileroo fixes your email reliability by helping
you switch to a proper SMTP Relay such as Maileroo, MailGun, SendGrid, etc. Simple
SMTP by Maileroo is free to use and has everything you need to send your emails 
via WordPress!

#### SMTP Explained

SMTP, or Simple Mail Transfer Protocol, is the industry standard for sending emails
across the internet. It plays a critical role in the email delivery process, acting
as the protocol that governs the transmission of emails from one server to another.
Understanding SMTP is essential for anyone managing email communications, particularly
in a WordPress environment. If you do not use a proper SMTP relay service, your 
emails might go to spam, compromising their effectiveness and reach.

#### HTTP API Integration

Now, with the latest update, Simple SMTP by Maileroo offers HTTP API integration
with Maileroo. This feature allows you to send emails via the Maileroo API, without
the need for SMTP credentials. This is a great option for users whose hosting providers
block SMTP ports or for those who prefer to use the Maileroo API for email delivery.

#### SMTP Relay Providers

Here are some of the popular SMTP Relay providers, each offering unique features
and benefits for different email delivery needs:

 1. [Maileroo](https://maileroo.com)
 2. [Mailgun](https://www.mailgun.com)
 3. [SendGrid](https://sendgrid.com)
 4. [Amazon SES](https://aws.amazon.com/ses/)
 5. [SMTP.com](https://www.smtp.com)
 6. [Postmark](https://postmarkapp.com)

Absolutely! Simple SMTP by Maileroo is designed to be compatible with a wide range
of email services including Maileroo, Gmail, Outlook.com, Office 365, Yahoo, and
more.

### What should I do if I need support or encounter an issue?

We’re here to help! If you need any help with the plugin setup, just let us know!

Please visit [our contact page](https://maileroo.com/contact) for more information.

### Are there plans to add new features to Simple SMTP by Maileroo?

We’re always open to suggestions! If there’s a feature you’d like to see in Simple
SMTP by Maileroo, please let us know. While we can’t promise to implement every 
request, we seriously consider all feasible and sensible suggestions to enhance 
our plugin.

### Is it possible to add custom email headers (tags) to an email message?

For the SMTP method of the plugin, you can easily add custom mail headers. In the
example below, a tag header with the value of the ”From Email” is added:

    ```
    add_action('ssbm_add_custom_header', function($phpmailer) {
      $phpmailer->addCustomHeader('X-Tag-from', $phpmailer->From);
    });
    ```

A similar filter hook is available for the Maileroo API method. The following example
adds the same tag header to the email message.

    ```
    add_filter('ssbm_add_tags_api_method', function($payload) {
      if (isset($payload['from']['address'])) {
        $payload['tags'] = array('from' => $payload['from']['address']);
      }
      return $payload;
    });
    ```

This plugin works fantastically with Maileroo API or SMTP. I use it with Formidable
Forms on several sites and it not only works perfectly, when it was first released,
the developers kept improving it quickly and responded immediately to any questions
I had. Highly recommended!

I'm surprised this SMTP plugin hasn't had more reviews or usage to date because 
I found it really easy to set up and use with its own Maileroo SMTP service. I've
been looking for an easy SMTP setup for my client websites for them to receive form
submission notifications. I want to use an API rather than username and password
for better security and reliability. My clients have various email providers so 
I want something I can use for all of them. I like SMTP2Go but it is limited to 
5 sending domains for its free SMTP service. I found Fluent SMTP very reliable to
connect to other SMTP services but it has a limited number of services that it can
connect to using API. I recommend this and Maileroo to anyone looking for a similar
solution to reliably send form submissions from their sites.

Enter API key/SMTP settings, set senders details and test connection.That's really
all the plugin need to do and this does it.
