Design Cart SMTP

Diagnostic SMTP for WooCommerce shops: mapped errors, SMTP transcript, send log, and store-style tests.

Most SMTP plugins confirm that a test message left the server. Shop owners still do not know why an order email failed.

Design Cart SMTP is a diagnostic SMTP layer for WordPress and WooCommerce. It sends mail through an authenticated mailbox, then shows what the mail server actually answered.

What makes it different

  • Mapped SMTP errors (authentication, TLS, connection, certificate, sender/relay, recipient, rate limit) instead of a generic failure
  • Full SMTP transcript (password redacted) plus the raw PHPMailer message
  • WooCommerce-style test using the store email wrapper — no fake orders
  • Send log of the last 100 messages with source (WordPress / WooCommerce / test) and error text
  • Presets for Gmail, Outlook, and Polish hosts (home.pl, nazwa.pl, OVH, cyber_Folks)
  • Force From so the WooCommerce envelope matches the SMTP mailbox
  • WooCommerce HPOS compatible; templates stay in WooCommerce Settings Emails

This plugin only changes transport. It does not replace WooCommerce email templates or marketing mail tools.
