Does mail stay in queue? | WordPress.org

Hello, thanks for your work. This plugin is really helpful.

I’m wondering what happens to the mail when the wp_mail() function is suppressed. If I use the plugin to disable email, and then later deactivate the plugin when I want to send email, will all of the old emails be sent?

G’day jfcarter,

No, this plugin just drops emails silently into the bit bucket, i.e. lost forever. Its job is to stop emails being sent, period.

If you need to keep track of what would have been sent, you can install an email logger. e.g.

https://wordpress.org/plugins/log-emails/
https://wordpress.org/plugins/email-log/

That second one has a Pro version that lets you forward a logged email.

cheers,
Ross
