Users appreciate WP Mail SMTP for resolving email deliverability issues in WordPress, especially with forms and WooCommerce notifications. It is praised for being easy to configure and use, providing a straightforward solution with significant free features. Many users have relied on it for years across different websites, highlighting its reliability.

Some users faced initial setup issues, particularly with certain email providers. Despite these, the overall consensus is positive, emphasizing the plugin's effectiveness and simplicity.

Best and easiest SMTP solution out there. I self host my WP site on my NAS and for whatever reason I could not get the mail functions to work. Went looking for an easy solution and found WP Mail. Installation was easy. Activated and put in the settings for my domains SMTP and saved. First try and it worked! Been using it for over a week now with no issue. Straight out of the box. Five Stars for this outstanding plugin!
