Why are old versions being deleted?
I love using your plugin—it’s fantastic! However, I keep running into errors with wpackagist and my build pipeline. Every time a new version is released, the old one gets deleted.
Why do you do that? What could possibly make you think this is a good idea?
Thank you for your time and attention.
I genuinely look forward to your response.
]]>Suddenly stopped working – no data during test email – all settings good.
Have removed and reinstalled – did not expect all old connection data to be restored.
Would like to completely remove and start clean – can you help??
]]>You marked this older topic as resolved, but the problem is present in the latest version (1.1.14).
Your plugin is still passing POSTed data through sanitize_text_field(). The purpose of that function is to escape text for output within HTML, and has nothing to do with sanitising inputs. First, start with a clean copy of POST data like this:
$post = stripslashes_deep($_POST);Then use values from that array. For credential inputs, the most you should do is trim(). Passwords are always best left as-is.
Currently, a perfectly normal random password like 1Q,z<_%39P would be “sanitised” by your plugin to 1Q,z<_P.
Hi:
Can you clarify who we’re supposed to choose for the “outgoing mail server”? You indicate gmail, but what if there’s no gmail account involved? I don’t understand where the outgoing mail server comes from. I am trying to set up a contact form on a website and it says I have to set up SMTP first, so I was going to try your plugin, but I don’t see any instructions on selecting the outgoing mail server.
Help appreciated – thanks!
]]>Hi there! Does your app support OAuth? Google is sunsetting SMTP username/password this September (2024) so we’d like to use the more secure connection they recommend.
Thanks!
]]>Hi,
I like your plugin and have it working with google workspaces smtp relay server. I did have to create an App Password in order to get it to pass the smtp login. The only issue i’m having is that from address isn’t getting set correctly and in gravity forms where i have a reply-to address set i don’t see that in the email generated. the From address does have the correct name part but no the correct email. The email showing is always the name of the account that the plugin logs into with the smtp server.
From: Events <[email protected]>
From: Information <[email protected]>
Is this something your plugin can control or is the google smtp relay server overriding?
thanks

Ability to add unlimited SMTP accounts and allow sending from the same email address.
Rotate the sending method from multiple methods per second, minutes, per hour, per day (to avoid the free limit of SMTP providers such as Gmail).

]]>I can’t seem to figure out how I can get the “From Name” to display properly for the Gmail owner/recipient.
It keeps showing “Me” in the From Name field.
I have gravity forms set to {Name (First):1.3} {Name (Last):1.6} in the field and it comes thru properly for my other Gmail account (ex: [email protected]), but not for [email protected] (which uses Gmail.) The From email is from [email protected] because I don’t have an option to change it for the client.
Not sure if I change a setting in the Gmail api or SMTP? He only has one email set up in his domain.
In SMTP, From Name and Force From Name are not checked. I want Gravity Forms {Name (First):1.3} {Name (Last):1.6} to display/not be overridden.
Any help is appreciated!
]]>Hi.
I’m using the test email submission page to write sample emails. Make it possible to save the entered email address, subject and message there.
Sorry for my English.
]]>I have four times the same installation, same theme, same plugins. On one page, smtp is not working anymore, pushing the test button results in a endless loading. The debug log is empty. even the php error log.
I have reinstalled the plugin. Nothing.
What can I do?
]]>Hi there!
Just letting you know that the plugin is not working with Contact Form X. When I set up a form with it and I try to send an email, the form throws out an error unless I comment line 108 in their file core-email.php. That’s the line that sets the From: header.
If I switch your plugin with Easy WP SMTP (which I would very much not want to do so), everything works well.
Let me know if you need additional information to fix this ??

]]>Hi
I successfully installed SMTP Mailer and was able to send a test email with no problems.
I was hoping to use this with Contact Form 7.
Prior to installing SMTP Mailer Contact form 7 worked fine. However, after installing SMTP Mailer, contact form 7 is no longer working, gives the error “Failed to send your message. Please try later or contact the administrator by another method.”
If I turn off the email send in Contact Form 7 the form works with no error – though of course no email is sent.
Thanks for you coperation
Adriana
Is there something I need to do to get this working either in SMTP mailer of Contact Form 7
]]>Thank you for the great plugin
Passwords containing a higher entropy (e.g special characters like %”) will be stripped out by sanitize_text_field as documented on https://developer.www.ads-software.com/reference/functions/sanitize_text_field/. Since you base64 encode the password, sanitize_text_field is an unnecessary step that unnecessarily forces the use of a weaker password
You can use https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.tyganeutronics.wpconsole to track your plugin analytics easily
]]>Hello,
I have 2 wordpress sites on same provider, with SMTP capabilities.
I installed SMTP Mailer on both with exactly the same configuration .. sending the test mail works on the 1st one, not on the second one. Nothing happens, no message, just return to empty form !!
What can be my mistake ??
Thanks for help and suggestions

]]>The smtp server I’m using does not require authentication. It’s done through an spf record on the domain instead. It’s similar to the godaddy instructions you have
So I’ve set SMTP authentication to false but I get the error
“SMTP Mailer plugin cannot send email until you enter your credentials in the settings.”
Test emails also don’t seem to arrive.
Why do we get an error about entering authentication credentials when credentials are not required? Would this also stop the test email from being sent?
Paul
]]>This is not the bug report, but … could you please mark settings field “From Email Address” and “From Name” as mandatory? I left them blank, WordPress always sets them (default value, etc …), and the plugin did not work. The red warning “SMTP Mailer plugin cannot send email until you enter your credentials …” was misleading, because I DID enter my credentials (smtp host, username, password, …). I really did not consider “From Name” as credential.
The “Test email” behaviour was confusing, too. It did nothing, with “From Name” etc. empty. The page reloaded after submit, and nothing happened, no words about message being sent on not. Only the red warning about credentials … better solution would be not show test email fields at all, until all settings are correctly filled.
So only a few little improvements to your great plugin ??

The plugin has been working great for 5+ years until recently I get the following in a test send.
This is connecting to an Office 365 account that I do not have access to.
Apart from check that the password hasn’t changed is there anything else I can advise my client?
It’s connecting via TLS on port 587
Many thanks.
