Acorn Mail

Acorn Mail is a simple package handling WordPress SMTP using Acorn's mail configuration.

Requirements

• PHP >= 8.1
• Acorn >= 3.0

Installation

Install via Composer:

Getting Started

Start by optionally publishing Acorn's 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=

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=]

If any errors are detected, they will be printed to console.
