Peter not sure if you are unaware that Google has a transactional email service. It's called AppEngine, uses the Gmail API (not sure if it works with SMTP) and let's you send up to 20,000 emails per day.

George, you tried Easy SMTP Mail, Postman and WP Mail SMTP and none of them can send your mail? Are you sure port 465 is open? GoDaddy normally has that port closed, except for their localhost server,...

I have a dedicated server at godaddy and postman showed 465 open. Guess I should check & verify with godaddy. It does work on my NON-GODADDY server just fine. I was hoping for something easy so...

Let's talk only about the WP Mail SMTP plugin here. If your port 465 is open, WP Mail SMTP should be able to send your mail directly to Google. As for multisite, here are instructions for how to...

It's my understanding if you do that those settings are used across all sub-sites.

Hello! I'm testing your plugin, sounds good, I liked the debug part. But please, can you make the password field not a plain text one? Showing the password around is not a very secure measure... If you...

Yeah, that's my suggestion too. It'd be great if the password field was obscured.

If you really want to hide password from admin you can edit /wp-content/plugins/wp-mail-smtp/wp_mail_smtp.php on line 305 change line <td><input name="smtp_pass" type="text" id="smtp_pass"...

Hmm right, can I then add only the password define into the config, remove the password field from from, but leave the rest ? It'd be better if you could also put an md5 hash on the password, then...

Good point Jason, that would need to be obscured too, but then to the casual observer the password wouldn't be visible.

I say you're all attacking this from the wrong angle. The real question is why are you letting users you don't trust have admin access to your site??

We build sites for customers who then want to make their own changes - I'd like to hide that password from those users.

Then those customers should input their own SMTP settings. Right? Graham, is your case a WPMU network? Where all subsites use the network config?

We relay all e-mails through SendGrid which allows us to troubleshoot routing issues and check when a customer should have received a certain enquiry, etc. When we create a new WordPress site it's done...
