WPO365 | MICROSOFT 365 GRAPH MAILER

Description

WPO365 | MS GRAPH MAILER provides you with a modern, reliable and efficient way to send WordPress transactional emails from one of your Microsoft 365 / Exchange Online / Mail enabled accounts.

The plugin re-configures your WordPress website to send emails using the Microsoft Graph API instead of – for example – SMTP. Sending WordPress emails using the Microsoft Graph API has become the only available alternative after Microsoft has disabled basic authentication (username and password) over the SMTP protocol.

DELIVERY

• Send WordPress transactional emails from one of your Microsoft 365 Exchange Online / Mail enabled accounts using Microsoft Graph instead of – for example – SMTP.
• Choose between delegated (send mail as a user) and application-level (send mail as any user) type permissions.
• Or: Select either a Microsoft 365 account or a personal Microsoft account, like Hotmail.com or Outlook.com, to send WordPress emails.
• Or: Configure RBAC for Exchange Online and authorize as an application but with a limited scope e.g. one specific mailbox.
• Daily refresh of Microsoft Graph access and refresh token.
• Auto-flagging and suppression of duplicate emails.
• Auto-retry when throttled (HTTP 429).

SAVE TO SENT ITEMS

• Send emails as BCC instead and prevent reply-to-all mail pollution.

REPLY-TO
