## Descripción

#### Add Plain-Text Email

This plugin will add a `plain/text` version of your HTML emails to your WordPress
emails. This decreases the chance of your legit emails being marked as spam by tools
as SpamAssassin.

This plugin comes without any settings. When activated, it will automatically look
for HTML emails being sent using the `wp_mail()` function and when necessary add
the plain text version.

The source code of this plugin is available on GitHub: [ibericode/wp-add-plaintext-email](https://github.com/ibericode/wp-add-plaintext-email).

**About the plugin author**

[Danny van Kooten](https://www.dannyvankooten.com/) has been building WordPress 
plugins since 2010, starting with WordPress 3.0.

He is the founder of [ibericode](https://www.ibericode.com/), the small software
company behind popular WordPress plugins including [Mailchimp for WordPress](https://wordpress.org/plugins/mailchimp-for-wp/)
and [Koko Analytics](https://wordpress.org/plugins/koko-analytics/).

## Instalación

#### Installing the plugin

 1. In your WordPress admin panel, go to _Plugins > New Plugin_, search for _Add Plain
    Text Email_ and click «Install now»
 2. Alternatively, download the plugin and upload the contents of `add-plain-text-email.
    zip` to your plugins directory, which usually is `/wp-content/plugins/`.
 3. Activate the plugin. Your HTML emails will now automatically have a plain text 
    version attached.
 4. _(Optional)_ Test your new mail score using [http://mail-tester.com/](https://es.wordpress.org/plugins/add-plain-text-email/mail-tester.com?output_format=md)

## FAQ

### Why add a plain text version?

Because it decreases the chance of your _legit_ email being marked as being spam
and thus disappearing in spam folders.

http://wiki.apache.org/spamassassin/Rules/MIME_HTML_ONLY

### Will this mess up my HTML email?

No, the plugin does not affect the HTML message of emails.

### Will the people I send email to notice?

No, 99% of all email clients will just show the HTML version of the email.

The other 1% can’t properly display HTML and will show the plain text email. Without
this plugin, they would have had nothing to show.

### Where can I check my SpamAssassin score?

You can use the following online tools to test the _spammyness_ of your WordPress
emails.

A lot of WP plugins send only HTML emails. This plugin saves us from having to change
to another plugin to just send plain text emails along with HTML emails. It works
perfectly with WP 6.3 and Icegram Express. Thank you Danny!

Does exactly what it says on the tin. Even though it has not been updated for ages
the code is super-simple so there's no reason for it to require an update. Tested
on WP version 4.9.6. Also works with the WP Mail SMTP plugin to send through Mailgun
which was an unexpected bonus!
