While SMTP plugins often have email testing, very few plugins allow you to test your WP email delivery without being part of another plugin. For example, I have a client who uses Mailgun. I switched to the Mailgun plugin from a popular SMTP plugin, but it cannot send test emails! So, this plugin is perfect for testing these types of things. It’s nice to find plugins that do exactly what they say they will and have no extra stuff.

You should improve the code to make it use the same configuration as WP .. Emails work perfectly, if tested with mail-testers, whether they are sent from Outlook, from the cell or from the site .. Only with one plugin doesn’t work, this ..!
