With over 22 years of email delivery success, SMTP.com is the trusted transactional and email relay provider for over 100,000 businesses worldwide. This WordPress integration for SMTP.com enables you to send and track your emails seamlessly.<\/p>\n\n<p>Don't worry about maintaining your email server or taking care of its IP reputation, forget about dealing with ISPs like Gmail, Yahoo or Microsoft in attempting to understand why your email isn\u2019t reaching its destination. SMTP.com manages all this on your behalf. Simply create a SMTP.com account to <a href=\"https:\/\/registration.smtp.com\/?afid=wpplugin\">get started<\/a> and set up this plugin. Although this plugin is free you will need a paid subscription with SMTP.com to send emails from your WordPress site.<\/p>\n\n<p>You can send emails from your WordPress site using the SMTP.com API or the standard SMTP protocol. Our plugin will suggest the best way for you to send email even if your provider has restricted access to outbound internet ports. Either way, SMTP.com will still ensure your email gets delivered.<\/p>\n\n<p>Another useful feature provided with our WordPress plugin is the ability to track your email delivery from within the plugin itself. See the results of your recent sends to ensure successful delivery or identify the reason why your particular email hasn't been delivered.<\/p>\n\n<!--section=installation-->\n<h4>Using WordPress Admin Panel<\/h4>\n\n<ol>\n<li>Go to <em>Plugins<\/em> and then click the <em>Add New<\/em> button.<\/li>\n<li>Search for <code>smtpcom<\/code> in the search field <em>Search Plugins...<\/em>.<\/li>\n<li>Identify the SMTP.com plugin in the list and start the installation by clicking the <em>Install Now<\/em> button.<\/li>\n<li>Activate the plugin by going to <em>Plugins<\/em> and then choose <em>Installed Plugins<\/em>, find the <code>SMTP.com<\/code> plugin and click <em>Activate Plugin<\/em>.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n<h4>Upload Manually<\/h4>\n\n<ol>\n<li>Download the plugin from its repository by pressing the <em>Download<\/em> button.<\/li>\n<li>Go to <em>Plugins<\/em> in your WordPress Admin Panel and then click <em>Add New<\/em> button.<\/li>\n<li>Click the <em>Upload Plugin<\/em> button, select the downloaded zip archive with the plugin and click <em>Install Now<\/em>.<\/li>\n<li>Activate the plugin in the <em>Plugins<\/em> menu in WordPress as specified in the <strong>Admin Panel<\/strong> option above <\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n<h4>Upload Using FTP<\/h4>\n\n<ol>\n<li>Download the plugin from its repository by clicking the <em>Download<\/em> button.<\/li>\n<li>Unzip the downloaded file and launch your FTP client.<\/li>\n<li>Locate the folder <code>plugins<\/code> under the <code>wp-content<\/code> folder in the root directory.<\/li>\n<li>Upload the whole folder from the unzipped file to the <code>plugins<\/code> folder on your remote server.<\/li>\n<li>Activate the plugin in the <em>Plugins<\/em> menu in WordPress as specified in the <strong>Admin Panel<\/strong> option above.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n<!--section=faq-->\n<dl>\n<dt id=\"how%20do%20i%20create%20an%20smtp.com%20account%3F\"><h3>How do I create an SMTP.com account?<\/h3><\/dt>\n<dd><p>Follow <a href=\"https:\/\/registration.smtp.com\/?afid=wpplugin\">this link<\/a> to register for your SMTP.com account.<\/p><\/dd>\n<dt id=\"where%20can%20i%20find%20information%20on%20getting%20set%20up%3F\"><h3>Where can I find information on getting set up?<\/h3><\/dt>\n<dd><p>Follow <a href=\"https:\/\/kb.smtp.com\/article\/2137-wp-plugin\">this link<\/a> to find all information about installing and configuring the plugin.<\/p><\/dd>\n<dt id=\"why%20do%20i%20need%20to%20pay%3F\"><h3>Why do I need to pay?<\/h3><\/dt>\n<dd><p>You don't need to pay for the WordPress plugin -- it's completely free.
