What the author says it does

WP Mail Logging is the most popular plugin for logging emails sent from your WordPress site. Simply activate it and it will work immediately, no extra configuration is needed.

Are your WordPress emails not being sent or delivered?

Use this plugin to log all outgoing emails from your WordPress site. If there are any errors when sending the email from your site, our email logs will catch that error and display it to you.

This will allow you to debug and fix your email sending issue.

Did a client not receive your email?

Our email logs allow you to resend any email that was sent from your site. No more lost emails!

Do you just want to keep a record of all emails sent from your site?

By default, WordPress and your web host do not log, store or keep track of emails sent from your website.

This plugin will allow you to do just that. Our email logs will store every email that is sent from your WordPress site.

You can search and view a particular email log, inspect its content or attachments, and even resend that email.

What email information is logged?

All emails sent from your WordPress site are logged. And here is the information that is stored:

  • Email Subject
  • Email Content (HTML or text)
  • Email Attachments
  • Email Headers (to, from, reply-to, cc, bcc, …)
  • Error Message (in case there was an error while attempting to send the email)

The opening of the plugin's own description. The full text, installation notes and changelog are on its WordPress.org page.

Questions the author answers

Does this plugin log emails sent from WordPress plugins?

Yes, it logs all emails sent from your site, including any emails that are created by your plugins or your theme.

Why are some attachments not logged?

This plugin only stores the file path of the attachments and not the attachments file themselves. If the attachment file path does not exist or the file was deleted, then it will not show up in the logs.

Where this page's numbers come from

Read from the WordPress.org plugin API on , when WordPress 7.1.4 was the current release. WordPress.org rounds active installs into buckets. These are the directory's figures, not my verdict, and I haven't tested this plugin.
