Mailvat routes all your outgoing emails to your SMTP service for easy local development.

My recommendation is to use Mailpit in your development environment with this plugin.

This is an UNOFFICIAL plugin that just integrates Mailpit or MailHog in WordPress.

What is Mailvat?

Mailvat is a simple plugin that integrates your SMTP testing tool, like Mailpit or MailHog, with WordPress.

What is Mailpit?

Mailpit is a nice email testing tool for developers. All outgoing emails from your website end up in the inbox in Mailpit, instead of being sent to the original recipients. This helps us testing our emails.

How can I use this plugin?

Define the Mailpit SMTP configuration values and activate this plugin.

What are the plugin’s default configuration values?

If you do not define the MAILVAT_HOST and MAILVAT_PORT constants yourself, these will be used by default:

MAILVAT_HOST=mailpit
MAILVAT_PORT=1025

Is this an official plugin from Mailpit or MailHog?

This is NOT an official plugin from the creators of Mailpit or MailHog. I am not related to anyone in the Mailpit or the MailHog team.

This is just a simple plugin to easily use an SMTP service, like Mailpit or MailHog, with WordPress. I made this plugin because I could not find it yet and it speeds up our local development if we can easily install this integration in WordPress.

  1. Upload the plugin folder to the plugins directory, e.g. the /wp-content/plugins/ directory
  2. Optionally: Configure your Mailpit SMTP settings by using the MAILVAT_HOST and MAILVAT_PORT constants
  3. Activate the plugin through the ‘Plugins’ menu in WordPress
