Frequently Asked Questions

Common questions about Mail Control – Email Customizer, SMTP Deliverability, logging, open and click Tracking

After installing Mail Control, you can access the Email customizer to design you emails (you will be able to select what email to customize) and send a preview email before activating the feature.

If your recipient receives your email, don't you want to know? Is it in his spam folder? Is the email subject clear enough that he actually opens the email? is your call to action compelling enough so he clicks on it?

Email Tracking will help you detect problems and opportunities so you can take action, it is an invaluable tool for the great marketer.

Mail Control plugin automatically manages your email logs based on your selected retention period. A scheduled task runs daily to remove only logs that exceed your chosen timeframe, ensuring your database remains optimized while preserving all valuable tracking data.

Mail Control helps you diagnose and fix email deliverability issues by testing your domain's SPF, DKIM, and DMARC records, providing actionable suggestions for any detected problems. As it is an experimental feature for now, we can assist you if you need any help.

With this plugin, you can activate the Background Mailer, this will defer sending the email to a background cron job. This will speed up your pages and response times and more importantly avoid any critical timeout error in your checkout experience.

Probably, as long as your theme or plugin doesn't override the wp_mail function. Mail Control should work just fine. As tested now, mail control is compatible with "Contact Form 7" and "WooCommerce".

Sure, you can setup the SMTP Mailer to use Gmail. First, you should create a password application for your wordpress site, this will allow Mail Control to send emails using your gmail account. SMTP Host : smtp.gmail.com SMTP Port : 465 Encryption : ssl Smtp User : your-gmail-adress@gmail.com Smtp Password : The password your created earlier From Email : your-gmail-adress@gmail.com Please be aware that there is a 500 emails limit per day.

If you get stuck, you can ask for help in the Mail Control Plugin Forum.
