# Getting started

> Install BooleanSMTP, connect a provider with the setup wizard, send a test email, or import from another SMTP plugin.

BooleanSMTP replaces your WordPress site's own mail function with a real provider — Amazon SES, Google
Workspace, Microsoft Outlook, Custom SMTP or PHP Mail — so contact forms, password resets and order
receipts reliably reach the inbox. Every email it sends is logged, so you can see what went out and
check whether it arrived.

These four pages take a new site from installed to a confirmed, delivered test email:

<CardGrid>
	<LinkCard
		title="Install"

	/>
	<LinkCard

		description="Connect your first provider — five guided steps from Start to Review."

	<LinkCard
		title="Send a test email"
		description="Confirm the connection works, then check it was delivered."
		href="/getting-started/send-a-test-email/"

	<LinkCard

you begin.
