Bentostudio Mail Wordpress Plugin - Rating, Reviews, Demo & Download
Plugin Description
Bentostudio Mail is a modular WordPress mail management plugin built entirely on native WordPress APIs — no external dependencies, no SaaS accounts required.
Modules included:
- Overview — Dashboard with live SMTP status, delivery statistics, and a recent activity table.
- Statistics — Paginated mail log with per-entry detail modal (headers + sandboxed body preview).
- SMTP Settings — Configure host, port, encryption, credentials, and From address. Run a two-step connection test (socket probe + PHPMailer handshake with full debug transcript) or send a live test email.
- Plugin Setup — Assign WordPress roles to each module capability and configure log retention limits.
Key features:
- Full SMTP routing via the
phpmailer_inithook — works with any host that supports SMTP relay. - Two-step SMTP diagnostics: raw
fsockopen()socket probe followed by a full PHPMailer handshake with captured debug output. - Mail log stored in a dedicated custom database table. Automatic pruning by entry count (default cap: 10,000) and/or age in days.
- Role-based access control: four granular custom capabilities, one per admin page, injected at runtime without touching the database.
- Modular architecture: new modules self-register via a single
config.php— no changes to core files needed. - Clean uninstall: drops the database table and removes every
wp_optionsentry the plugin ever wrote.
