## Description

Adds the possibility to send all WordPress emails via SMTP. SMTP sending can be 
configured discreetly in the general settings.
 In general, this plugin fits into
WordPress almost invisibly and without any advertising. In addition, errors in the
Phpmailer are integrated into the debugging of WordPress.

## FAQ

### Where do I enter my SMTP credentials?

Go to Settings  General  Advanced Email Settings. There you can enable SMTP, set
host/port/encryption, and add your login credentials.

### Why does the password field show ********?

For security reasons, the plugin never displays your real SMTP password in the admin
UI. If you see ********, a password is already saved. Enter a new password only 
if you want to change it. Leave it as ******** to keep the current one, or clear
the field to delete it.

### My SMTP test fails with “Authentication failed” — what should I check first?

Verify the encryption + port combination and your username format. Common setups
are STARTTLS on port 587 or SSL/TLS (SMTPS) on port 465. Many providers require 
the full email address as username. If your mailbox uses 2FA, you may need an app
password.
