## Description

This plugin makes it safe and easy to work with email in your testing environments.
When enabled the plugin catches any instance of wp_mail and redirects the email 
to your chosen email address.

Key Features

 * Emails intercepted will have [Debug] added to the subject line to make them identifyable
   in your inbox
 * Interception rules can be limited by plugin allowing you to debug a specific 
   plugin on your live site without affecting other operations
 * Notice in the WP Admin Bar when enabled.

## FAQ

### Will this intercept all emails sent from WordPress?

Generally speaking, Yes, but. This plugin catches all emails sent using the wp_mail
function. Best practice specifies that plugins should use this function to send 
email but it is possible that developers could send email using another method in
which case this plugin won’t catch it.
