Jan Dembowski on "[Plugin: WP Mail SMTP] Beware of this malware tool!"

Terrible plugin. It doesn't work, and I'm suspicious about it being a malware. When you enter your SMTP information and send a test, it just goes blank. I have a dedicated server with firewall and it detected an intrusion and suspicious activity everytime I tried to run a test to send email. Needless to say, the tests never worked.

How do you know that the error wasn't yours? Why didn't you try to contact the plugin's author about this by posting a topic in the plugin's support forum?

What do you mean the error was mine? We're talking about a plugin, I work with WordPress everyday, and I'm using plugins from hundreds of developers. The plugin doesn't work, period.

Respectfully, an allegation of malware seems about as harsh as it gets. I would want solid evidence - not just a suspicion - before playing that card. The plugin works great for me and very many others, evidenced by the positive reviews and over half million active installs.

I'm suspicious about it being a malware.

Why would you make that claim? You say it doesn't work but that's a far cry from "malware".
