wp_mail override?

    Hey guys -

    Would there be a way to override the submit action to use PHP's sendmail instead of wp_mail? A hook/filter or something? We're having an issue where the only way we can get any mail to send off the server is to add an ini_set line for sendmail_from. I realize we could add this line to the core WP files but I'm not a huge fan of this if it can be avoided.

    Better option might be if we could get a hold of the form variables on a specifically targeted template page (via form settings), we could process it there and add our init_line to a custom mail() script on that page.

    Thanks in advance for any help!

    Yes, you can do this using the WP Mail SMTP plugin which you can download here:

    http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/wp-mail-smtp/

    It changes WordPress to use PHP send mail or SMTP to send email notifications depending on how you configure it.

    Since Gravity Forms uses WordPress wp_mail function to send email, if you install and configure this plugin it would then be used to send email notifications.
