## Description

The [Simple SMTP Mailer](https://kibb.in/ssmtp) plugin allows you to easily configure
WordPress to use SMTP instead of the PHP mail function.

**This should only really be used in a development environment.**

### Simple SMTP Mailer Settings

 * **Host**: The mail server (Defaults to smtp.gmail.com)
 * **Username**: The username used for connecting to the SMTP server
 * **Password**: The password used for connecting to the SMTP server
 * **Port**: The port to use when sending an email (587, 465 or 25. Defaults to 
   587)
 * **Security**: The type of encryption security to use when sending an email (TLS
   or SSL. Defaults to TLS)
 * **Debug**: Enable debugging

All settings can be overridden by assigning array values to the SSMTP_MAILER constant
in wp-config.php. This is useful for automating local deployment.

    ```
    define(
        'SSMTP_MAILER',
        array(
            'host' => emailhost.com,
            'username' => username,
            'password' => password,
            'port' => 25,
            'security' => 'SSL'
        )
    );
    ```
