How does Fluent SMTP work?

Fluent SMTP behaves like the middle man among WordPress and Email Service Provider. Fluent SMTP associates your site to a provider rather than attempting to utilize WordPress and your hosting provider to send emails.

This is somewhat befuddling as individuals accept mistakenly that Fluent SMTP is the one sending the emails. It is really not the situation. It is just making a connection point for an email supplier like Amazon SES or SendinBlue to send emails for your site.

The Fluent SMTP plugin provides a simple way for you to fix your site’s faulty email issue, including all features.
