What is Sendmail?#

Sendmail is a local mail transfer program that hands messages to the server’s configured mail system. Jooosi Mail invokes a sendmail-compatible command on the WordPress host. Read more on the official website and in the official documentation.

Profile#

The Jooosi Mail Sendmail profile supports these transports and settings:

  • Transport scheme: sendmail (the only option).
  • Command: optional. When blank, Jooosi Mail uses the transport’s default sendmail command; enter a custom command only when your host requires one.
  • This profile does not use an API key, SMTP credentials, or a provider-specific region.

Select a transport scheme and fill in the fields shown for that scheme. Secret fields should be copied from your provider account and kept private.

Create the connection#

  1. In WordPress admin, open Jooosi Mail → Connections and choose New connection.
  2. Enter a descriptive Connection name and select Sendmail in Profile.
  3. Choose the transport scheme and enter the matching required credentials listed in the Profile section.
  4. Review the sender, routing, and advanced settings for this connection.
  5. Choose Create connection to save it.

For the shared connection workflow, see Provider profiles and transports.

Verify delivery#

Follow Send a test email and send it to a mailbox you can check. A test sends a real email. Check the mailbox and Jooosi Mail → Logs for the attempt status. See Email logs and resending for details.

Webhooks#

This local transport does not declare a provider webhook adapter. Check the Jooosi Mail email log and the mail system logs on the WordPress host.

Troubleshooting#

    Confirm that a sendmail-compatible executable is installed and available to the PHP/WordPress process.If your host uses a non-default executable, set the Sendmail command option and inspect the host mail logs after a test.For more detail on a failed attempt, review Jooosi Mail email logs.
