CodingBunny Mail SMTP allows you to easily configure an SMTP server to send all outgoing emails from your WordPress website.
By default, WordPress uses the wp_mail() function which relies on the server’s PHP mail configuration. This often leads to delivery issues or emails ending up in spam. This plugin solves that problem by routing emails through a reliable SMTP server.
Key Features
- Enable or disable SMTP with a single toggle
- Supports SSL, TLS, or no encryption
- Optional SMTP authentication (username & password)
- Secure password storage using encryption
- Custom “From Email” and “From Name”
- Built-in test email tool
- Lightweight, no third-party dependencies
- Fully compatible with WordPress PHPMailer
- Clean and accessible admin interface
Security
The SMTP password is encrypted before being stored in the database** and is never displayed in plain text in the WordPress admin area.
Configuration
You can configure the following options:
- SMTP Host (e.g.
smtp.example.com) - SMTP Port (e.g.
587) - Encryption: None, TLS, or SSL
- Enable/Disable SMTP authentication
- SMTP Username & Password
- Sender Email Address
- Sender Name
After saving, use the Test Email section to verify your configuration.
Uninstall
When the plugin is uninstalled, all plugin options (including encrypted credentials) are removed from the database.
