 * Doesn’t consistently send mail, but when it doesn’t, depending on where the problem
   occurs, there is no notification. This makes it unusable for me.

 * To be clear, the plugin doesn’t actually send any email. It simply tells WordPress
   to send the mail by SMTP instead. There is nothing in this plugin that controls
   email sending, generates emails, or otherwise. WordPress includes the ability
   to send emails via SMTP, this plugin just activates that feature. So whatever
   email issues you are having, it’s most likely they’re caused by something other
   than the plugin.
