Frequently Asked Questions

Common questions about Mailvat

Mailvat is a simple plugin that integrates your SMTP testing tool, like Mailpit or MailHog, with WordPress.

Mailpit is a nice email testing tool for developers. All outgoing emails from your website end up in the inbox in Mailpit, instead of being sent to the original recipients. This helps us testing our emails.

Define the Mailpit SMTP configuration values and activate this plugin.

If you do not define the MAILVAT_HOST and MAILVAT_PORT constants yourself, these will be used by default: MAILVAT_HOST=mailpit MAILVAT_PORT=1025

This is NOT an official plugin from the creators of Mailpit or MailHog. I am not related to anyone in the Mailpit or the MailHog team. This is just a simple plugin to easily use an SMTP service, like Mailpit or MailHog, with WordPress. I made this plugin because I could not find it yet and it speeds up our local development if we can easily install this integration in WordPress.
