Intercept emails sent with wp_mail and implements flexible mail queue system for sending emails, converting plain text emails to HTML with templates customization.

== Description ==
The plugin adds a mail queue system that can intercept all the emails sent through the `wp_mail` function, and depending on the predefined rules (number of recepients) sent the email into the queue, with each recepient getting own email. On top of that, plugin can process all plain text emails and wrap them in the HTML, and send them as HTML, with options to customize the template and various other aspects.

How the plugin works:

* Intercept every `wp_mail` call
* If needed, wrap email in HTML
* Determine number of recepients
* If eligible, add each recepient email into queue

Process of turning plain text into HTML emails, support all emails sent through wp_mail, even if they don't end in the queue. This can turn all WordPress system emails (registration, password reset...) into HTML emails. You can:

* Choose between predefined HTML templates
* Add your own custom HTML template
* Define your custom header and footer for emails

Queue works through the CRON, as a background job, and you can configure how many emails to send in a batch, with the timeout setting to prevent PHP timeout breaking the sending process.

Other plugin features include:

* Dashboard: overview of the queue
* Dashboard: overall mailer statistics
* Customize email From field for all emails sent through queue
* Customize email Reply and Sender fields for all emails sent through queue
* Automatic cleanup of all sent emails
* Logging of the errors for each email send though queue
* Developers friendly with various actions and filters for extra control
* Support for intercepting bbPress emails
* Track email types from WordPress, bbPress and more

It is not advisable to use this plugin along some other plugin that manipulates WordPress PHPMailer object.
