Hi,
phpBB already offers SMTP in addition to PHP's mail function, but there are now additional requirements that some people like to implement. Additional headers, encryption, the use of transactional email services such as Mailchimp, Mailgun or HubSpot, a spooler for sending emails that resends in the event of interruptions or captures bounces are just a few examples. The aim is to avoid being categorised as SPAM or to integrate a support forum into a company structure. The storage of the SMTP password in plain text in the database may also not be to some people's liking.
Hence my question: Is there a way to replace the mail functions of phpBB with your own solutions without touching the original phpBB code? Ist sowas geplant?
Best regards
Harald
