Description
MailTally helps site administrators log outgoing emails sent through WordPress wp_mail().
It is built for email debugging and troubleshooting. You can inspect recipients, subjects, message content, headers, attachments, send status, and error messages from a clean WordPress admin interface.
MailTally uses the WordPress wp_mail_succeeded and wp_mail_failed hooks. A successful status means WordPress and PHPMailer processed the send request. It does not guarantee inbox delivery.
Features include:
- Log outgoing WordPress email attempts.
- Track sent and failed statuses.
- Store recipients, subject, message, headers, attachments, and error messages.
- Filter logs by status, date range, and search terms.
- Preview email content with HTML and source tabs.
- Resend individual emails.
- Bulk delete logs.
- Send a test HTML email.
- Clear all logs.
- Export logs as CSV.
- Configure logging, retention, uninstall cleanup, and maximum logs.
This plugin does not configure SMTP settings. It logs and debugs emails sent through the standard WordPress mail flow.
