## Description

GoSMTP allows you to send emails from your WordPress over SMTP or many of the popular
email sending services. Many web hosting companies have strict mail sending rules
and limitations which restrict email deliverability. With GoSMTP, you will not be
using your hosting providers PHP email but rather sending emails over SMTP or using
API’s of various email providers.

GoSMTP supports many of your preferred SMTP provider(s) :
 1) SMTP.com 2) Sendinblue
3) Mailgun 4) Sendgrid 5) Sparkpost 6) Sendlayer 7) Postmark 8) Maileroo 9) ElasticEmail(
Pro) 10) SMTP2Go (Pro) 11) Gmail, Gsuite, Google Workspace (Pro) 12) Outlook / Office
365 (Pro) 13) AWS (Pro) 14) Zoho (Pro) 15) Resend (Pro) 16) MailerSend (Pro) 17)
Or any custom SMTP provider

WordPress uses the PHP mail function to send emails generated by WordPress. The 
PHP mail function sends emails over the IP of your hosting provider’s servers which
can have a bad reputation and be blacklisted by many email providers like Gmail,
Yahoo, Office 365, Zoho, etc. causing your WordPress originated emails to land in
the SPAM folder of your users. By using GoSMTP you ensure that your emails reach
the inbox of your user(s).

 [Anthony Hortin](https://profiles.wordpress.org/ahortin/) September 19, 2025

A simple SMTP plugin that just works. it’s easy to setup and configure. Unlike a
lot of the more popular SMTP plugins, it doesn’t clutter your dashboard with useless
menus that are only there to upsell their pro version. Thanks for the great plugin
🙂

I’ve been using the SMTP integration from your plugin and it’s rock solid. Emails
are delivered instantly and I no longer deal with missing form submissions. Super
reliable and easy to set up.

 [mywebmaestro](https://profiles.wordpress.org/mywebmaestro/) August 31, 2024

The main description of the plugin makes it sound like Gmail is an available option,
only it (and several others) are NOT unless you buy the premium version. If you’re
going to offer versions, at least be up front about who can have what.
