# Does Gmail SMTP send text/html format

 * The plugin is great and is working with most of the site however I have a custom
   form that is very complex and uses ajax. It sends the data in html format and
   uses the wp_mail() function. Since using the Gmail SMTP plugin it no longer sends
   the information submitted through the form. It does not show any errors and appears
   to work perfectly from the front end of the site. I have checked the gmail account
   and there is no sent email from that form listed in there.
 * When I have sent test emails from the plugin it shows that it sends the message
   in plain text. Could this be the problem? Thank you for you help. 🙂

 * Don’t worry I found the problem was the From header had to be an email address,
   it didn’t like just having a the website name in there.
    Thanks for a great plugin.
