 * Maybe it is not your fault (pretty sure of this), but just in case you can do
   something about it, I just tested it and even with your plugin activated, the
   emails were sent.
    This is the plugin [https://wordpress.org/plugins/sendgrid-email-delivery-simplified/](https://wordpress.org/plugins/sendgrid-email-delivery-simplified/)
 * Thanks!

 * Hi [@darkpollo](https://wordpress.org/support/users/darkpollo/),
 * Thanks for this message. The Stop Emails plugin works by overriding the WordPress
   mail sending code. Other plugins, like SendGrid, also override the mail sending
   code but so they can send the message instead. Their overrides allow the messages
   to be sent through their service despite the presence of the Stop Emails plugin.
 * Based on your report, I’ve added **SendGrid** to the list of [Known Incompatible Plugins](https://github.com/salcode/stop-emails/wiki/Known-Incompatible-Plugins).
 * While I’ve considered adding specific code to target these incompatible plugins
   one-by-one, ultimately I’ve decided that would be a larger time investment than
   I can give to this plugin.
 * If you or someone else has an improved way to prevent emails from sending (without
   addressing each other plugin individually), I’d love to hear about it.
 * In summary, I like the idea of stopping emails for these incompatible plugins
   but I’m concerned trying to addressing them individually would turn into a never-
   ending game of Whac-a-mole.
 * I’m sorry I don’t have a more satisfying reply to your request.

 * It is perfectly fine.
    I will stop using the Sendgrid plugin as soon as I find
   another alternative. 🙂 We need to support plugins that use the standards.
 * Thanks for this great plugin!

 * Hi [@darkpollo](https://wordpress.org/support/users/darkpollo/),
 * Thank you for your understanding and I appreciate your kind words in the review
   you left.
 * I do want to clarify, I don’t think the Sendgrid plugin is doing anything wrong.
   Unfortunately, the way they are modifying WordPress’s email sending for Sendgrid
   is incompatible with the way I’m modifying WordPress’s email sending to stop 
   the emails but I wouldn’t call their changes wrong.
 * I’m going to mark this topic as closed but please feel free to re-open it or 
   open another issue if you have further questions.
 * Thanks again and have a great day.
