From the developer
Janos Ver's own description of WP JV Custom Email Settings, lightly tidied.
By default when you send any notification from your blog (including many of the plugins as well) sender is “WordPress” and the sender e-mail address is wordpress@yourdomain.com. I wanted to have personalized sender name and e-mail address that is why I created this plugin. Then I added features to send out e-mail notifications about newly published posts to users who are interested either automatically (on publish) or manually.
This plugin will enable you to
-
Replace default wordpress@yourdomain.com to any e-mail address
-
Replace default e-mail from “WordPress” name to anything you want
-
Send e-mail notifications automatically/manually to all registered users about new public posts
-
Easily customize notification e-mail subject and content templates
-
Re-send e-mail notifications manually as well
-
Send notifications about password protected posts as well (password will NOT be included in notification e-mail)
-
If you have WP JV Post Reading Groups plugin installed then entitled users can receive notifications about new private posts as well
-
Users can opt-out if they don’t want to receive e-mails (they can choose to get all/nothing)
-
Bulk subscribe/unsubscribe users to/from e-mail notifications (go to Users->All Users and see bulk actions)
-
Maintain e-mail log about sent e-mail notifications
