Frequently Asked Questions

Common questions about Lean SMTP

Yes, and no. Every feature is in the plugin you just installed: all five mailers, offline mode, the send log, failure alerts, WP-CLI, encrypted credentials. There is no pro tier, no add-on to buy, no license key, no trial, and no "upgrade" notices in your admin. The plugin is GPLv2 and the source is on GitHub.
No. Lean SMTP has no telemetry, tracking, or analytics, and asks you to create no account. The only outbound connections it makes are to the mail service you configured, to deliver your mail. See "External services" below.
In a table in your own WordPress database, read under Lean SMTP → Email Log. It is capped to the newest entries, 100 by default and adjustable up to 5,000, and can be cleared or deleted a row at a time. It is off by default; when on, it records recipient, subject and result. Recording the headers, attachment filenames and message body are three further opt-ins, each off by default, because a stored body can contain password-reset links and personal data.
