By default WordPress hands email to the web server's mail() function, and a lot of it ends up in spam or never arrives. SMTP Mailer sends every WordPress email (password resets, order emails, contact forms) through a proper mail server instead: your email host, Microsoft 365, Google Workspace, Amazon SES SMTP, Brevo or any other SMTP service.

SMTP Mailer Pro

$39 per year, single site

Everything in Free, plus:

**Several providers with automatic fallback.** Add more SMTP accounts and the Amazon SES or Postmark email APIs, put them in order, and if one fails the next one sends the email.
**Sending limits per provider.** Set an hourly and a daily maximum for each provider (handy for plans with sending quotas); when one is reached, the next provider takes over.
**Bounce and complaint handling.** A webhook address receives hard bounces and spam complaints from Postmark, Amazon SES (through SNS) or any other service, and adds those addresses to a suppression list. SMTP Mailer then stops emailing them, which protects your sender reputation. You can add and remove addresses by hand too.
API keys and tokens are stored encrypted, like the SMTP password.
