About this plugin
This plugin replaces the default way WordPress sends email. Every message your site sends — WooCommerce orders, password resets, contact form notifications — is handed to Sendfeather, which delivers it and shows you what happened to it afterwards.
Two ways to connect. API key mode posts messages to Sendfeather’s HTTP API using one API key; it only needs outbound HTTPS (port 443), so it works on hosts that block SMTP ports. com and works with the credentials you create in the dashboard.
Switch modes at any time on the same settings screen.
A From address you control. Set the From email and name, and turn on “force From” so nothing else on your site can overwrite them. Sendfeather only accepts mail from addresses on domains you have verified in the dashboard, and forcing the address is what keeps shop and contact-form mail inside that boundary.
A test email that tells you the truth. The settings screen sends one real email through your saved settings and reports the result inline. After that, open Activity in the Sendfeather dashboard: every message appears there with its delivery timeline — accepted, delivered, and any bounce or complaint.
No tracking, no upsells. The plugin has no analytics, no telemetry, and no admin-nags. It makes network requests for one reason only: sending the mail you asked it to send, to Sendfeather.
External services
com. It is the only external service the plugin uses.
Every time WordPress sends a message — a WooCommerce order email, a password reset, a contact-form notification — or when an administrator sends the built-in test email, the plugin transmits that message to Sendfeather for delivery: the recipient addresses, subject, body, and any attachments, together with the From name and email address you configure on the settings screen. com over TLS. Your API key or SMTP username and password are sent only to authenticate those requests.
Plugin settings are stored in your WordPress database and nowhere else.
