  • Excellent plugin!

    This plugin instantly solves my problems. I have Elastic email through Cloudways, and I install this plugin, add my API key, and it instantly resolves my email issues.

  • Easy to setup

    Elastic email sender is just what I needed. After configuring and fussing with other SMTP plugins, I found this and it turned out to be 'set it and forget it'. hutch

  • Super Easy

    I've been using the old version for years and just discovered this. No more SMTP settings/passwords, etc. Just need your API key. Super-easy!
