WordPress can receive email as well as send it.

https://mailkite.dev MailKite SMTP is now in the WordPress.org directory. It replaces PHP mail() with the provider you already use — MailKite, SendGrid, Brevo, Mailgun or any SMTP server — and keeps a free log so a failed send is visible instead of disappearing quietly. You can also route incoming mail into WordPress, where a hook lets your code turn a message into a support ticket or an order note. No separate mailbox to check, and no need to build the same plumbing for every site. The plugin is free, GPL-2.0, with no Pro tier. MailKite’s free plan includes unlimited domains and 5,000 emails a month, with inbound and outbound sharing the quota and no credit card. Start at https://mailkite.dev; the setup guide is at https://mailkite.dev/docs/integrations/wordpress. Source: https://mailkite.dev/blog/mailkite-smtp-wordpress-plugin/

Launch by Kyle

Trayage’s Product Hunt launch day is here! 🚀

If you’ve been following along as I’ve built Trayage, thank you. Today I’m sharing it with the Product Hunt community, and I’d love for you to be part of the conversation. For anyone just catching up: Trayage is my Mac app for making sense of your Downloads folder—the old installers, likely duplicates, and large files that quietly pile up. It helps you review what’s there while keeping you in control of what gets cleaned up. If you have a moment today, stop by the launch page. Ask me a question, share how you handle your own Downloads folder, or tell me what would make Trayage more useful to you. What would you need to see before trusting an app to help with cleanup? You don’t have to have tried Trayage to join in. Questions and first impressions are welcome, and honest feedback gives me something useful to build on. The direct Mac download is available now if you’d like to try it. The Mac App Store edition is still awaiting Apple’s review. 👉 Visit Trayage on Product Hunt: https://www.producthunt.com/products/trayage And if you know someone whose Downloads folder could use a little order, a boost or a share would help me reach them. Thanks for helping this solo developer get the word out. 🧡

Most brands don’t know whether AI would recommend them.

I'm building the answer. I’m building HoneyWeRank to show brands how they appear in ChatGPT, Claude, Gemini, and Perplexity, where competitors get cited instead, and what to do next. I'm still in pre-launch, so I’m documenting what works/doesn't, validating the problem, shaping the product, and figuring out how to turn AI visibility into something marketing teams can actually improve. The goal: help brands become the answer AI recommends. Drop a "me" if this sounds interesting. #buildinpublic #SaaS #AEO #AI #marketing
