WordPress SMTP email sending plugin: WP Mail SMTP

Sending emails is a basic function of the website. WordPress also involves sending emails in registration, password retrieval, comment notifications, etc. Generally, virtual hosts have their own PHP email function. For VPS and cloud servers, you need to configure related functions yourself. Even if the host can send emails normally, since the emails sent by PHP's default email function are easily treated as spam and the delivery rate is not high, we still highly recommend using SMTP to send emails.

Currently, there are many SMTP-related plug-ins for WordPress. Here is an introduction to the use of the WP Mail SMTP plug-in.
