 * Hello All,
 * Before I move over from WP-Mail SMTP plugin, does this plugin encrypt credentials
   to the smtp server or does it send it in plain text? Plan is to use TLS offsite
   with SMTP authentication on a specific port. Thanks!

 * Hi, The data is encrypted before saving it to the database. The plugin only decrypts
   the data before sending it to the SMTP server.
