My web logs reveal that almost exactly the same instant I installed this plugin, some malware was installed into our website. It seems exceedingly unlikely it would be a coincidence. Beware! If there is anyone legitimate behind his plugin and I am mistaken, please let me know!
]]>With the latest version of WordPress running (4.4.2) and the latest version of Easy SMTP – there are a number of warnings being thrown.
This is due to the has_cap check inside of add_menu page passing in a deprecated value (10).
I’m assuming that you’d like to check if the current user has the capabilities to manage_options.
To resolve this issue, you’ll want to change line 34 on class.smtp_admin.php from
add_menu_page('WP SMTP Options', 'WP SMTP', '10', dirname(plugin_basename(__FILE__)), array(&$this, 'twd_smtp_options_page'), '');
to
add_menu_page('WP SMTP Options', 'WP SMTP', 'manage_options', dirname(plugin_basename(__FILE__)), array(&$this, 'twd_smtp_options_page'), '');
Note the change from ’10’ to ‘manage options’.
I would have issued a PR but I couldn’t find any github repo with this plugin up. However I do see one for the older version that this was forked from, so I may issue a PR over there as well.
Thanks,

am i understanding things right?
instead of sending from [email protected], i could set this up to have my users receive email through my gmail account?
in other words:
1. my sent emails would become part of my gmail account history (thus i could continue any correspondence directly through my gmail account)
2. my recipients would see [email protected] and respond to that email address too?
3. i essentially would not need to use [email protected] at all for my wp or woocommerce installation?
let me know, thanks
