 * Hey there!
 * There’s a simple plugin called Pending Submissions Notifications that does this
   really well out-of-the-box. You can find it [here](https://wordpress.org/plugins/pending-submission-notifications/).
 * Alternatively, you may want to check out this [post](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/notify-editors-about-new-post).
   It seems this functionality can be added to Edit Flow, which is a very popular
   plugin for maintaining a good workflow on a multi-author site. You can find Edit
   Flow [here](https://wordpress.org/plugins/edit-flow/).
 * Hope that helps!

 * You may also checkout Oasis Workflow – [https://wordpress.org/plugins/oasis-workflow/](https://wordpress.org/plugins/oasis-workflow/)
 * It helps to automate your editorial review process and create custom workflows.
 * It will also send out an email on assignments and reminders.
 * Hope that helps.

 * POP is for incoming mail. When a mailserver emails the messages, it’s called 
   SMTP.
 * You need an SMTP plugin.
