Repository metrics are context, not quality scores. Active installations measure adoption and can strongly reflect a plugin’s age and historical popularity. Ratings, recent updates and “Tested up to” metadata also do not guarantee modern code, error-free operation, security, feature completeness or suitability for a particular site.

Overview

About this plugin

By default WordPress sends email from your web server. Those messages carry no signature of your own, so they often land in spam or never arrive. SendSend Mailer sends them through the SendSend email API instead, from your own verified domain.

Anything that calls wp_mail() is covered: WordPress itself, WooCommerce, Contact Form 7, Gravity Forms, WPForms and most other plugins.

  • Works with any plugin that uses wp_mail()
  • From address and name set once, with the option to force them
  • Reply-To is kept when a form plugin sets the visitor as the sender
  • Safe retries: a retried send can never deliver twice
  • Test email button and a log of recent sends
  • API key can live in wp-config.php instead of the database
  • Attachments: up to 10 files and 10 MB in total. Executables and scripts (.exe,.js and similar) are refused by SendSend.
