What is the SMTP server for WordPress?

Last updated on September 25, 2022 @ 12:17 am

The SMTP server is used to send and receive email. When you create an email account in WordPress, the SMTP server is automatically set as the default mail server.

PRO TIP: The SMTP server for WordPress is not a secure server. Any information sent through this server could be intercepted by a third party. WordPress recommends that you use a secure server for any confidential information.

If you need to change the SMTP server, you can do so in the Settings->Mail section of your WordPress account.
