| SMTP host | Port | Encryption |

- The SMTP username SendLayer creates when you authorize your domain (Settings → SMTP Credentials)
- Password

Checked against SendLayer’s SMTP documentation.
Before you connect
Authorise your sending domain in SendLayer and have its SMTP username and password ready.
Setup guide: Custom SMTP connectionsPair it with a fallback
A second provider as the fallback keeps your site sending if your SendLayer credentials change.
When SendLayer refuses a message, BooleanSMTP tries your fallback connection at once, logs which one delivered it, and alerts you on Slack, Discord or Telegram only if every attempt fails. See the whole path
What SendLayer receives
Only what sending needs: each message (recipients, subject, body, headers, attachments) and the credentials you enter for the connection, sent to SendLayer when WordPress sends an email. BooleanSMTP stores those credentials encrypted in your own database. Read SendLayer’s terms and privacy policy.
