## Description

**Are your WordPress emails getting lost or landing in spam?**

By default, WordPress uses the PHP `mail()` function, which is often unreliable 
and poorly configured on web servers. This leads to common problems like contact
form submissions never arriving, or customer notifications going straight to the
spam folder.

**Dibrother Simple SMTP** solves this problem permanently. It reconfigures the `
wp_mail()` function to send all emails through a professional SMTP provider of your
choice. This authenticates your emails, dramatically improving deliverability and
ensuring your important messages reach the inbox every time.

**Key Features:**

 * **Reliable Email Delivery:** Send all WordPress emails through a trusted SMTP
   server.
 * **Easy to Configure:** A clean and simple settings page guides you through the
   setup in minutes.
 * **Secure:** Supports SSL and TLS encryption to protect your email content and
   credentials.
 * **Lightweight and Fast:** No bloated code or unnecessary features. It does one
   job and does it perfectly.
 * **Test Email Functionality:** Quickly send a test email to verify your configuration
   is working correctly.
 * **Universal Compatibility:** Works with any SMTP provider, including Gmail, SendGrid,
   Mailgun, Amazon SES, and your own private email server.

**(Tiếng Việt)**

**Email từ website WordPress của bạn có bị thất lạc hoặc rơi vào spam không?**

Mặc định, WordPress sử dụng hàm `mail()` của PHP, một phương thức thường không đáng
tin cậy và hay bị các máy chủ hosting giới hạn. Điều này dẫn đến các vấn đề phổ 
biến như không nhận được email từ form liên hệ, hoặc thông báo cho khách hàng bị
chuyển thẳng vào hòm thư rác.

**Dibrother Simple SMTP** giải quyết triệt để vấn đề này. Plugin sẽ cấu hình lại
hàm `wp_mail()` để gửi tất cả email thông qua một nhà cung cấp dịch vụ SMTP chuyên
nghiệp mà bạn chọn. Điều này giúp xác thực email của bạn, cải thiện đáng kể tỷ lệ
gửi thành công và đảm bảo các thông điệp quan trọng luôn đến được hộp thư đến.

## Installation

 1. Upload the `dibrother-simple-smtp` folder to your `/wp-content/plugins/` directory.
 2. Activate the plugin through the ‘Plugins’ menu in WordPress.
 3. Go to **Dibrother Simple SMTP** in the main admin menu to configure the plugin.

 5. Save your settings and use the “Send a Test Email” feature to confirm everything
    is working correctly.

## FAQ

### Where can I find my SMTP settings?

You can get your SMTP settings from your email provider (like Gmail, Outlook) or
your transactional email service (like SendGrid, Mailgun, etc.). They will provide
you with the Host, Port, Username, and Password.

### Can I use this with Gmail?

Yes! For Gmail, you would typically use:
 * **SMTP Host:** `smtp.gmail.com` * **
SMTP Port:** `587` * **Encryption:** TLS * **Username:** Your full Gmail address(
e.g., `your.name@gmail.com`) * **Password:** Your Gmail **App Password**. You need
to generate an App Password in your Google Account security settings. Using your
regular password will not work if you have 2-Factor Authentication enabled.
