WDNS - SMTP Mailer
WDNS - SMTP Mailer is a simple plugin for sending emails using an SMTP account.
Description
A simple plugin for sending e-mails using an SMTP account. No tracking, no spoofing, no useless features!
Since version 1.1.0 the SMTP password is stored fully encrypted in the database. I'm talking about encryption, not Base64 encoding (as is applied with most plugins). PHP 7.2.x with Sodium extension is a minimum requirement for this!
`Sodium is a modern, easy-to-use software library for encryption, decryption, signatures, password hashing and more. Its goal is to provide all of the core operations needed to build higher-level cryptographic tools.`
Further information about PHP Sodium can be found here.
