Best Email WordPress Plugins

WordPress email plugins control how your site sends transactional emails — password resets, order confirmations, form notifications, and user registration messages — and give administrators tools to debug, log, and improve deliverability. Many of these plugins replace WordPress's default PHP mail function with SMTP authentication via providers like SendGrid, Mailgun, Amazon SES, or Gmail, dramatically reducing the chance of emails landing in spam. Developers and site owners also use email plugins to redesign notification templates, set up conditional routing, and build automated sequences triggered by user actions. Reliable email delivery is a foundational requirement for any WordPress site that depends on transactional communication.
