## Description

Many web servers cannot send email reliably, so password resets, orders and contact
form messages land in spam or never arrive. 007AJ SMTP Mailer sends WordPress email
through a real email account instead.

**Features**

 * Other SMTP with presets: Fastmail, Gmail (app password), Outlook.com, Yahoo, 
   Zoho, iCloud, Office 365 / GoDaddy and cPanel hosting mailboxes.
 * Default PHP mail fallback.
 * From Email and From Name with “force” options, Return-Path set to the From Email,
   optional default Reply-To.
 * Test email with a plain-English diagnosis of failures and an SMTP debug transcript
   with passwords masked.
 * The last 20 sending errors under Tools.
 * Passwords encrypted at rest (libsodium, OpenSSL fallback), never shown back in
   the browser, or defined in wp-config.php with AJSM_* constants.
 * Simple setup wizard.
 * How-to documentation inside your dashboard.
 * No tracking, nothing on the front end.

**007AJ SMTP Mailer Pro (separate paid add-on)**

Pro adds API mailers (Gmail / Google Workspace, Microsoft 365 / Outlook, SendGrid,
Mailgun, Brevo, Postmark, Amazon SES, SMTP2GO, Resend), an email log with resend
and CSV export (by default it stores only To, Subject, status, date, mailer and 
error, never the email body; saved bodies have reset links, keys and one-time codes
redacted, and entries are deleted after 30 days by default), a backup connection,
smart routing, failure alerts (email, Slack, Discord, Teams, webhook), a weekly 
summary, WordPress notification toggles and daily stats. The free plugin is fully
functional on its own and nothing in it expires.

### External services

007AJ SMTP Mailer connects only to the outgoing mail (SMTP) server that you enter
in its settings, and only when WordPress sends an email or you send a test. It sends
that server your SMTP username and password (to log in) and each email’s sender,
recipients, subject, body, headers and attachments, which is necessary to deliver
the email. The terms and privacy policy of the email provider you choose apply, 
for example:

 * Fastmail: https://www.fastmail.com/about/legal/terms-of-service/ and https://
   www.fastmail.com/about/legal/privacy/
 * Google (Gmail): https://policies.google.com/terms and https://policies.google.
   com/privacy
 * Microsoft (Outlook.com, Office 365): https://www.microsoft.com/servicesagreement
   and https://privacy.microsoft.com/privacystatement
 * Yahoo: https://legal.yahoo.com/us/en/yahoo/terms/otos/index.html and https://
   legal.yahoo.com/us/en/yahoo/privacy/index.html
 * Zoho: https://www.zoho.com/terms.html and https://www.zoho.com/privacy.html
 * Apple (iCloud): https://www.apple.com/legal/internet-services/icloud/ and https://
   www.apple.com/legal/privacy/

With “Default (PHP mail)” selected, email is handed to your server’s own mail system
and the plugin makes no outbound connection. The plugin never contacts 007AJ and
sends no usage data. Upgrade links are ordinary links that open only when you click
them.

### Privacy

The plugin stores your settings, your encrypted SMTP password and a list of the 
last 20 errors (date, mailer, recipient, subject and error text). It stores no email
bodies and sets no cookies.

## Installation

 1. Install from Plugins > Add New (search “007AJ SMTP Mailer”), or upload the zip,
    then activate.
 2. Follow the setup wizard, or go to 007AJ SMTP Mailer > Settings.
 3. Send a test from 007AJ SMTP Mailer > Test Email.

## FAQ

### Why do I need an app password?

Gmail, Fastmail, Yahoo, iCloud and Outlook.com do not accept your normal password
for SMTP when extra security is on. Create an app password in your email account
and paste it into 007AJ SMTP Mailer.

### Can I keep my password out of the database?

Yes. Define AJSM_SMTP_PASS (and the other AJSM_* constants) in wp-config.php. See
007AJ SMTP Mailer > Documentation.

### Does it work with WooCommerce and form plugins?

Yes. 007AJ SMTP Mailer handles every email sent with the standard wp_mail() function.

### Does the free plugin contain locked features?

No. Paid features live in the separate 007AJ SMTP Mailer Pro plugin. The free plugin
only shows information about them.
