Requirements
Installation
Install via Composer:
$ composer require roots/acorn-mail
Getting Started
Start by optionally publishing Acorn's mail config:
$ wp acorn mail:config
SMTP credentials can be found in the published mail.php config file and default to environment variables.
Usage
For most configurations, you can simply set the following variables in your environment:
MAIL_HOST= MAIL_PORT= MAIL_USERNAME= MAIL_PASSWORD= MAIL_FROM_ADDRESS= MAIL_FROM_NAME=
If you need to change the default encryption from tls, you can set the encryption variable:
MAIL_ENCRYPTION=ssl
Once the credentials are properly configured, you can send a test email using Acorn's CLI:
$ wp acorn mail:test [--to=] [--subject=] [--body=]
You can customize the test email subject and body:
# Test with custom subject and body $ wp acorn mail:test --subject="Deploy Test" --body="Deployment successful" # Test with custom recipient $ wp acorn mail:test --to=admin@example.com
If any errors are detected, they will be printed to console.
