Gravity SMTP Is Now Available!
Gravity SMTP, our new plugin, is now available! We’ve created this stand-alone WordPress plugin so that you can use a range of SMTP services to send emails from your site.
If you have a Gravity Forms Elite license, you can start using Gravity SMTP to effortlessly set up the integration between your WordPress website and your choice of professional SMTP service.
If you like the idea of making your site more reliable at sending emails, such as WordPress admin emails and emails generated by third-party plugins, including Gravity Forms, Gravity SMTP was built with you in mind.
Thanks to the plugin’s user-friendly interface and setup wizard, you can easily integrate your site with the following email-sending services:
- Brevo
- Mailgun
- Postmark
- SendGrid
- Google / Gmail
- Microsoft 365 / Outlook
You can also set up an integration with other SMTP email service providers via the plugin’s settings page.
If you keep an eye on the Gravity SMTP Roadmap, you can see which integrations and other features are being considered for future releases.
As well as enabling you to send WordPress website emails more reliably, Gravity SMTP also has a logging area that lets you see the status of the emails generated by your site and its plugins. From there, you can see whether they were sent successfully or not plus more, all from your WordPress dashboard.
You can also use the testing feature to check that the SMTP service integration is functioning as expected.
Our Ultimate Guide to Gravity SMTP has more information on what our new plugin can do.
You can also find in-depth information on how the plugin works in the Gravity SMTP documentation.
