Works as Intended
I have this installed and working on several websites. I always recommend Zoho for inexpensive quality email. They have a free level, but you need the paid level which is currently $1/mo per email address with a custom domain name. Compares to Google Workspace and Microsoft 365 as far as quality of service.

Great plugin, but no Reply-To support
The plugin works great with the Zoho Mail account. Unfortunately, WordPress forms currently don't include the Reply-To header, which makes it inconvenient for our client to confirm bookings. We had this feature working previously using another SMTP plugin with Brevo, so we know it's possible. Please consider adding support for Reply-To headers in WordPress forms as a priority update. This functionality is essential for proper communication flow, and I’ve seen multiple users requesting it over the past year - both here and on the Zoho Community forum.

Great for mail
If you have to get your own ssl certificate because you're living on the cheap; this is the way to. Even if paid, zoho mail is cheaper and always reliable. Very happy, 5/5

Reply to isn't an option
Great plugin, but missing an important feature. We like to set it up to send from a noreply@ email address, but when the user or notification email are sent out, the "reply to" address is not used, rather the noreply@ email address. This is ineffective. If this feature is added, 5 stars... until then 3 stars.

Highly recommended for your Zoho email account!
The plugin works great with your Zoho account. No issues with my site, and it was very easy to setup and pretty straight forward.

Excellent!
Thanks a lot ! The plugin works OK! If it is for a wordpress "Contact form 7":1- Install the "zoho mail" plugin, so that the Authorization Redirect URI is generated2- You must access api-console de zoho website.3- Choose the server option after entering and paste the "Authorization Redirect URI" that was generated in wordpress. With these data, the "Client Id" and the "Client Secret" that the plugin requests in the admin of the wordpress site are generated.
