We use the plugin ‘WP Mail SMTP’ to send emails on the website.
To check the settings: Go to ‘WP Mail SMTP’ -> ‘Settings’ -> ‘General Tab’
To test email: Go to ‘WP Mail SMTP’ -> ‘Settings’ -> ‘Email Test Tab’
We don’t allow emails on non-production environments to be sent out. We use the plugin ‘Disable Emails’ to disable that. Unless we will be testing to send an email to a user, we could temporarily disable the plugin for the meantime.
We also use the plugin ‘Log Emails’ so we could check all the emails.
Emails that we’re not sent out due to enabling of the plugin ‘Disable Emails’ will still be logged.
To check the emails. Go to ‘Tools’ -> ‘Log Emails’.
