Q: Mail are not sent, why?
A1: Check if all parameters are correct and check if the smtp works in another program like an email client
A2: If you are using SSL/TLS you need a PHP with openSSL support, see requirements
Q: How can I check if I have openSSL support installed on my server?
Create inside your web server a php file with inside this:
<?php phpinfo(); ?>
then visit with your browser that page and check “Registered Stream Socket Transports” and see if you have “tls” and “ssl” protocols.
Q: Why I got duplicates of mails? It’s clearly a Cimy Swift SMTP issue!
A: If the sender and the destination addresses are the same probably you are receiving one mail for the sender and one mail for the destination and you are thinking it’s a duplicate, but it’s not true and it’s not “clearly a Cimy Swift SMTP issue”.
For example GMail always does like that.
Q: When feature XYZ will be added?
A: I don’t know, remember that this is a 100% free project so answer is “When I have time and/or when someone help me with a donation”.
Q: Can I help with a donation?
A: Sure, visit the donation page or contact me via e-mail.
Q1: I have found a bug what can I do?
Q2: Something does not work as expected, why?
A: The first thing is to download the latest version of the plug-in and see if you still have the same issue.
If yes please write me an email or write a comment but give as more details as you can, like:
- Plug-in version
- WordPress version
- MYSQL version
- PHP version
- exact error that is returned (if any)
after describe what you did, what you expected and what instead the plug-in did 
Then the MOST important thing is: DO NOT DISAPPEAR!
A lot of times I cannot reproduce the problem and I need more details, so if you don’t check my answer then 80% of the times bug (if any) will NOT BE FIXED!

cihan:
what do you mean for new mails? You mean how can you trigger WordPress email? For example registering a new account.
Hi, thank you for your fast reply. well i mean how can i check my gmail account via wordpress for new mails?
cihan:
I think you misunderstood the purpose of this plug-in:
this plug-in let you use your smtp server for sending WordPress emails, that it.
Is not a mail reader.
Oh sorry, one of my friend sent me this plugin and told me that i can post wordpress posts via gmail with this plugin. I think this plugin doesn’t do this job? I can’t find any good plugin for posting wordpress posts via gmail.
cihan:
maybe you want to read README file before posting?
I was so happy that i finally found a plugin to do what i want and i made a quick installation, i didn’t read readme.txt etc. Now sorry about misunderstood. I can’t find a plugin to do this post via mail job. damn.
Thanks Marco for this great effort.
I had this plug-in working for sometime. When I upgraded WP to 2.7 it started giivning an error whenever a user posts a comment. When this plug-in is enabled the error appears (although the comment is sent for moderation, but the user only sees the error).When I disbale the plug-in, the error message disappears.
The wp-comments-post.php when executed gives an error 500 (The website cannot display the page).
I am using:
* Cimy Swift SMTP version 1.2.3
* WP version 2.8.4
* MySQL client API version 5.0.67
* PHP Version 5.2.10
Mahmood:

Ciao Marco e grazie per il tuo plugin SMTP, volevo sapere se era compatibile con contact form 7 che mi sta facendo impazzire.
Hi marco & Thanks for your Cimy SMTP Plugin for WordPress, I would like to know if this plugin is compatible with the Contact Form 7 Plugin.
Can you help me?
Michele:

Pradip Somasundaran:
I see: “Connection timed out” seems your server is not responding.
Is the plugin compatible with WordPress 2.8.6 ?
Noticed that after I upgraded, I get a “connection refused” error – but this could be due to changes my Webhost has made to the SMTP server.
Neil:
I don’t know, I’m developing 2.0.0 coming soon.
I really like your plugin, it’s the only one that semi-works for me so far. Here’s the trouble I’m having with WP 2.8.4: the emails go through when I send a test using the “Test Connection” feature on the page where you can enter the SMTP information, but not when someone needs a password emailed to them or otherwise.
I really need to get this fixed, do you do private consulting?
Alex Hernandez:
sure, send me an email.
I am having a problem with Gmail addresses. It doesn’t seem to send to them.
I have tested with many email addresses and success.
Even when I test Gmail address, it says that it was sent, but emails never show up in the inbox or Junk mail folder.
Any solution to this?
Harold:
so is a problem of email destination not smtp?

Leonardo Kfoury:
Thank you!
Hi Marco,
Thanks for this plugin and the earlier ones – a great improvement for wordpress sites.
Unfortunately, I’m still unable to send out emails from my website. Following details might be helpful to you:
Plug-in version: 1.2.3
WordPress version: 3.0
PHP version: PHP 5.x
Exact error that is returned: Here’s the error message:
Fatal error: Uncaught exception ‘Swift_ConnectionException’ with message ‘The SMTP connection failed to start [tls://smtp.googlemail.com:465]: fsockopen returned Error Number 10060 and Error String ‘A connection attempt failed because the connected party did not properly respond after a period of time, or established connection failed because connected host has failed to respond. ”
To me, it looks like the plugin is working fine and that there’s something wrong at the email provider’s end. If that is correct, and if you know of a way around it, please let me know. I have google apps hosted email on my domain.
Best regards,
Anm
