By default, MailPoet sends emails via PHP Mail, its premium MailPoet Sending Service, or services like Amazon SES or SendGrid. But there』s a catch: Some SMTP providers (like Gmail) aren』t supported, and email logging isn』t possible.
➡ This plugin fixes that. It ensures all MailPoet newsletters are sent via your chosen SMTP plugin, so your WordPress email settings apply to newsletters, too – without extra setup or extra costs.
🛠 Works with popular SMTP plugins like:
✅ WP Mail SMTP (by WPForms – the most widely used SMTP plugin)
✅ FluentSMTP (lightweight, free, GDPR-friendly)
✅ Post SMTP (supports OAuth for Gmail, Outlook, etc.)
✅ Easy WP SMTP (simple & reliable)
✅ MailerSend, Brevo (formerly Sendinblue), and more
🎯 Why use this plugin?
✔ Ensures MailPoet emails follow your SMTP settings
✔ Works with Gmail & other SMTP providers MailPoet doesn』t support
✔ Enables email logging via your SMTP plugin
⚠ Important notes:
- Major MailPoet updates may require adjustments.
- Some advanced MailPoet features (like bounce handling) may behave differently.
✅ Test your setup with MailPoet test emails and real newsletters to ensure everything runs smoothly!
