Mansoor SMTP for SendByte

Mansoor SMTP for SendByte

Details
View on WordPress

Mansoor SMTP for SendByte hooks into WordPress’s built-in PHPMailer to route all outgoing emails through SendByte’s SMTP servers (smtp.sendbyte.africa). No third-party API keys required — just your SendByte API key and you’re set.

This plugin is not officially built or maintained by SendByte. It was created by Mansoor Saidu to provide a simple, reliable SMTP integration for WordPress users who send transactional email through SendByte.

Features

  • SMTP integration — Configures PHPMailer with STARTTLS on port 587 automatically.
  • Sandbox mode — Test your email flow without sending to real inboxes.
  • Email logging — Store every outbound email with delivery status (sent, delivered, failed).
  • Test email — Send a quick test from the settings page to verify everything works.
  • Delivery dashboard — See delivered, bounced, failed, and pending counts pulled straight from the SendByte API.
  • Connection health — Verify your API key, check sandbox/live mode, view verified domains, and see monthly usage.
  • From name & email — Customize the sender details that recipients see.
  • Onboarding flow — Step-by-step guide when you first activate the plugin.

External services
