SMTP isn’t for WordPress Email Delivery

Have you ever asked yourself, “Why on earth would WordPress not send my email?”

Um, yes. At least once…

Let me guess, it went something like this:
You set up your new blog and went to send out an email to your new subscribers! Awesome! Unfortunately, you discover that your hosting provider blocks your outgoing messages.

But you should actually be grateful! Sometimes the outcome is way worse when they don’t block them! In this case, you share server space and an IP address with so many others, that allowing them to send would impact your sending reputation. Those shared IP addresses get blocked all the time – which gets you blacklisted.

You see, most hosting providers use simple mail transfer protocol – SMTP. It’s a service which uses a non web port to send those emails, and hosting providers typically block that particular port.

WordPress Email Delivery (WPED) can’t be blocked! This is because our sending API uses the ports that the web server uses to serve your website.

Basically, it boils down to this. You send your bulk email to WPED via the API which is unaffected by your hosting provider doing their blocking thing. Then, our gurus here at WPED test the email and send it out to your recipient list – no problem!

How’s that for service?

What IS Managed Email Delivery?

Managed email delivery is all about making sure your messages get to where they need to go.  When you build a website one of the common things you need is the ability to send email.  You might need to send e-mails to your users when they change their password, or updates on products they have purchased from you in the past, or even a newsletter announcing an upcoming sale. Whatever the reason you need them delivered.

Unfortunately you can’t always guarantee your hosting provider will even send your email. That’s unacceptable! If they do send it will it be blocked along the way? If if it blocked you may find out about it, the worst case is your messages end up in spam folders and are never heard from again! Depending on what you are sending the process can vary wildly, and be very complicated to handle on your own. That is where Managed Email Delivery can help.

The basic idea behind managed email delivery is simple. A managed delivery service will take your email messages and do whatever they can to get them into the intended inbox.  The last thing you want is your upcoming sale announcement going into the spam folder of your customers.  Most hosting providers block email sending, rendering your website without an important communication resource.

A good managed email delivery service will take your emails and use specialized tools to send them, taking the sending away from your hosting providers so your messages can’t be blocked.  Your messages will be analyzed, sorted, and prioritized based on industry standard email patterns with proven success to allow for maximum deliverability.  These patters check everything from recipient email addresses, can-spam address checking, and spam score.  With these tools at your disposal your messages get delivered to your customers, not lost forever to spam.

If you have ever had problems with an email not getting to the person you sent it to, maybe Managed Email Delivery is for you.  If you use WordPress you should give WP Email Delivery a try, you’ll be amazed at the results.

Introducing WP Email Delivery: The Complete Solution for Delivering Email from WordPress

After several months of active development and a few weeks of rigorous beta testing, we are thrilled to introduce the world to WP Email Delivery, an email delivery plugin for WordPress.

WP Email Delivery was first built for our own use first. We needed a way to send large amounts of email from multiple sites and make it easy to configure for the customers we work with. After refining the process with our own WordPress sites and our newsletter plugin SendPress and Mandrill’s recent price change. We decided to release the plugin on WordPress.org and open the service up to everyone using our large sending volume to create savings for everyone.

WP Email Delivery is built on several services from Amazon Web Services (AWS), Mandrill and SendGrid. The primary sending is done via Mandrill with SendGrid as a backup service if needed. We use several custom created services at Amazon to monitor the health of our Mandrill account and sub accounts. Before an email is queued with Mandrill we run multiple checks on it, starting with our global bounce list and spam list. We then check the domain the email is going to for MX records and a mail server that responds to request. If everything looks good the email is then delivered via Mandrill.

WP Email Delivery is ready for use today and can be purchased from this site, starting at $5 per month or $18 per year.

Let’s have a quick look at some of the core features of WP Email Delivery:

  • Integrates directly with all major WordPress e-Commerce and Membership plugins
  • Efficiently replaces wp_mail() to send emails via our API
  • Complete management area with WordPress
  • Works out of the box on all hosting companies, even those with aggressive firewalls and port blocking
  • Extensive reporting on referrals, affiliates, and visits
  • A small code base that’s ready for other developers to extend

Try us out today for free with our 50 emails per month.
