Frequently Asked Questions
Common questions about SMTP Mail Control for MailPoet
Yes. For all newsletters and test emails that would normally use "PHPMail," it redirects to wp_mail(). However, if you are using MailPoet's own "MailPoet Sending Service" or "SendGrid," those remain unaffected.
It has been tested with MailPoet 5.x. MailPoet may change internal classes or architecture in future updates, which could break this override approach. We recommend testing on a staging site whenever you update MailPoet.
Verify that WP Mail SMTP (or any other SMTP plugin) is active and configured. Check if the MailPoet test emails differ from real newsletter sends. Sometimes the test mail can take a different route.
No. But internally, it uses a "class alias" hack to replace MailPoet's PHPMail class on the fly, which can be update-sensitive. If you see errors or your newsletter fails after a MailPoet update, deactivate and re-check plugin compatibility.
