Thank’s a lot!
You plugin realy helped me on the server without “sendmail” working properly! Using GoogleMail for mailing suits me best)

P.S.: plugin works great on WordPress MU 2.8.6 and BuddyPress 1.1.3 on one of my sites)

I just installed HGK SMTP and am having a bit of a problem. my website (www.cyberwarloop.com) is a subdomain off my test web-page (www.clean-your-carpet-cheap.com). When HGK SMTP sends an e-mail out, the “reply-to” e-mail address is listed as wordpress@cyberwarloop.clean-your-carpet-cheap.com rather than the e-mail address that I put into the plugin configuration page: administrator@cyberwarloop.com

How do I get the sender and reply-to address to the same as I specify?

I am using WP 2.9.2

Hi,
Your plugin works extremely well. Haven’t found any plugins yet that do not work well with it but that might also be something you want on this site, to both offer support and drive traffic.

Thanks for the great plugin.

I downloaded HGK to use with my wordpress blogs/websites. Since I own my web server using Apache, Php, MySql in Windows XP, I don’t have a mail server installed. So I needed a mail-smtp plug-in for workpress.

I tried several mail-smtp, but none of them would work with Gmail and the ones that worked using my ISP settings did not work with any Contact Forms.

I downloaded HKG and installed it in my test wordpress blog and it too didn’t work with Gmail. “Oh! not another one” Anyway, I thought I would see if HGK would work using my ISP settings with SSL checked. And again it did not work. So I unchecked the SSL and ran the save test again, This time it worked. I then tried sending an email through my Contact form and again it works.

Since I prefer to use my ISP settings anyway, I’m now a happy camper. I know this is a long reply, but I wanted your readers to know HKG works for me. Thank you!

oh, sorry, I understand that my php_openssl module didn’t be enabled, it works perfect now, thanks!

I suggest you adding some error messages so that people could have chance to look into the problem, I looked into the php error log to nail the problem, it’s not so convenient

So this is not sending mail via socket? Only a hack of mail() function? I’ve tried this plugin with my localhost which doesn’t have mail server installed, my gmail has received nothing. I’m looking for a solution based on socket so I can send mail from wordpress hosted on a windows server doesn’t have SMTP server installed, any clue?

Copy RSS link(s) from the footer of this page and paste it to your rss reader. That should do it.
