Installation
- Before any installation, make sure you have a smtp server available (supports smtp (default) or sendmail).
- Have all informations to access to this server at hand.
- The installation process is like any other plugin.
- Once activated, go to « Settings > MailPress », fill and save the settings for each tab (General, (Connection to your mail server), Test, …
- Once everything is set, use the Test tab in « Settings > MailPress » to validate your settings (your first mail with MailPress)
- You can also install the MailPress widget on your front page : « Appearance > Widgets ».
- Just browse the different MailPress admin screens, read the help in the help tab for each screen.
- Now that you are familiar with this plugin, you can visit « Plugins > MailPress Add-ons » to add options to your plugin (may be you already did it to activate sendmail).
- I wisely recommand to activate add-ons one by one, and see what are the changes in the MailPress settings admin panel, in the help, etc …
