Introduction
EasySMTP makes sure your Joomla site's emails go out, and shows you what happened to every one of them.
It sends Joomla's email through the provider you choose, keeps a searchable log of every outgoing message, lets you resend a failed email with one click, tracks opens and clicks, and switches to a backup provider automatically when your main one fails.
Registrations, password resets, contact forms, orders, invoices, administrator alerts and newsletters: whenever an email goes through Joomla's mail system, from Joomla itself or from an extension, EasySMTP delivers it and logs it. No Joomla core files are changed.
For Joomla 4, Joomla 5 and Joomla 6.
Why site owners choose EasySMTP
- Send through a real email provider: standard SMTP, Gmail, Microsoft 365 or an email API, with a backup provider ready if the first one fails.
- Stop guessing: every outgoing email is logged with its status, so you can see what was sent and what failed.
- Fix it in one click: resend a failed email straight from the log. Your customer does not have to register again or repeat an order.
- See what happens next: open and click tracking, with device and location information, inside your Joomla administrator.
- One setup for the whole site: EasySMTP works at Joomla's mail layer, so every extension that uses Joomla's mail benefits from it.
Choose your email provider, change it any time
- Standard SMTP: any compatible SMTP server, including your hosting company's
- Google Gmail / Google Workspace: OAuth2
- Microsoft Outlook / Microsoft 365: OAuth2
- SendGrid API
- SMTP2GO API
- Brevo API
Your provider is set once, in EasySMTP. Switch to another one later and the extensions that send your emails keep working as they are.
Modern sign-in for Gmail and Microsoft 365. Connect with OAuth2, the providers' own authentication, instead of relying only on a plain SMTP username and password.
A complete log of your Joomla email
- Full history: sent and failed emails with recipient, subject, status and date.
- Search and filters: find any email by recipient, date, status or keyword.
- Detailed view: open a message to see its content, headers, delivery information and tracking data.
- One-click resend: send a failed or important email again, directly from the log.
- Bulk actions and export: manage many log entries at once, and export logs and statistics for reports, troubleshooting or your records.
When a customer says "I never got the email", you can check in seconds what Joomla tried to send, when, and whether it went out.
Open and click tracking
- Opens: see when a tracked email is opened.
- Clicks: see which links in your emails are clicked.
- Device and platform: desktop, mobile or tablet.
- Location: the geographic information available for each open or click.
Everything appears next to the email it belongs to in the mail log.
Automatic failover
Add a second provider as a backup. If your main provider fails, EasySMTP automatically tries to deliver the email through the backup, so password resets, new accounts, orders, payment notifications, contact requests and administrator alerts keep going out.
A queue for larger volumes
Send outgoing email through EasySMTP's queue instead of handling every message the moment it is created. The queue helps Joomla manage larger volumes of email and gives you more control over sending.
Works with your Joomla extensions
HikaShop, VirtueMart, J-BusinessDirectory, AcyMailing, contact forms, membership systems: when an extension sends its emails through Joomla's standard mail system, EasySMTP handles them. They all share:
- the same provider and settings
- the same mail log and one-click resend
- the same open and click tracking
- the same automatic failover
You don't need a separate setup or a separate log for each extension.
Good to know
- No extension can guarantee the inbox. EasySMTP makes sending reliable and visible. Whether a message lands in the inbox also depends on your provider, your domain's SPF, DKIM and DMARC records, your sender reputation, and the recipient's mail server and spam filters.
- Tracking is an indication, not proof. Some email apps and privacy features block or change tracking, so an email can be read without an open being recorded.
- Joomla's mail system is the key. An extension that sends email with its own mailer instead of Joomla's mail system is not handled by EasySMTP.
Frequently Asked Questions
I already use AcyMailing. Do I still need EasySMTP?
Yes. They do different jobs. AcyMailing is for newsletters and email marketing. EasySMTP delivers, logs and monitors all the email your Joomla site sends: registrations, password resets, contact forms, orders, invoices and system notifications. When AcyMailing sends through Joomla's mail system, EasySMTP delivers and logs those emails too, so you see transactional emails and newsletters in one place.
Does EasySMTP work with HikaShop, VirtueMart, J-BusinessDirectory and other extensions?
Yes, when they send email through Joomla's standard mail system. Their emails then use the same provider, log, tracking and failover as the rest of your site.
Is EasySMTP just a replacement for Joomla's SMTP settings?
No. It replaces Joomla's mail settings, then adds what Joomla doesn't have: multiple providers, OAuth2 sign-in, a full mail history, failed-email visibility, one-click resend, open and click tracking, automatic failover, a sending queue, bulk actions and export. Joomla's settings decide how email is sent. EasySMTP also shows you what happened afterwards.
What happens if my email provider stops working?
If you have set a backup provider, EasySMTP automatically tries to send through it, so important emails are not held up.
Can EasySMTP show me why a customer did not receive an email?
It shows you whether Joomla sent the email, its status and its details, and lets you resend it at once. If the email was sent but never reached the inbox, check your SPF, DKIM and DMARC records and your sender reputation. The recipient's mail server and spam filters can also hold it back.
Can I see if someone opened an email?
Yes, for emails with tracking enabled: opens, clicks, device, platform and location are recorded next to each email. Some email apps and privacy tools block tracking, so treat it as an indication.
Does EasySMTP modify Joomla core files?
No. It works through Joomla's mail system without touching core files, so Joomla updates stay simple.
Can I use my hosting company's SMTP server?
Yes. Any compatible standard SMTP server works. Gmail, Microsoft 365 and the API providers are optional.
Can I switch email providers later?
Yes. The provider is set in one place, so you can change it without changing any extension that sends email.
Does EasySMTP guarantee inbox delivery?
No email extension can. EasySMTP makes your Joomla email reliable, visible and manageable. Inbox placement also depends on your provider, DNS records (SPF, DKIM, DMARC), sender reputation and the recipient's spam filters.
Which Joomla versions are supported?
Joomla 4, Joomla 5 and Joomla 6.
All your Joomla email, in one place
Send → Log → Track → Resend → Failover
Whether your site sends a handful of important emails or a steady stream of orders and notifications, EasySMTP lets you see and control every message, from your Joomla administrator.
