PHP or SMTP Email Method

by garfield29 Posted: 14 years ago 5 replies

Hi!

I got across a plug-in which makes me choose what method to use for sending out emails: PHP or SMTP.

I'm not quite sure what this means and what are their advantages over the other.

I need some ideas about this.

Thanks

Thanks for the information.

If I use SMTP, I think this is not a free service. Do you know any reliable company for this service?

  I have not used this service, only heard it recommended:
  
  SMTP Relay Server: App and Transactional Email Delivery by SendGrid
  
  Basically you can use this kind of service to send emails, with SMTP that are suppose to have a higher delivery rate. Suppose to work well with Wordpress blogs.
