This guide shows you how to configure WordPress SMTP email sending using the WP Mail SMTP plugin. You will set up authenticated email delivery through your HOSTDOG mail server so that contact forms, password resets, WooCommerce order notifications, and other WordPress emails are delivered reliably.

If your emails are landing in spam folders — or worse, someone is sending emails pretending to be you — it is time to set up email authentication. SPF, DKIM, and DMARC are three DNS records that tell receiving mail servers your messages are legitimate. This guide walks you through setting up all three on your HOSTDOG hosting.
