{% hint style="success" %}
**Recommended SMTP (Email) Plugin**: [WP Mail SMTP](https://wpmailsmtp.com/).
{% endhint %}

{% hint style="info" %}
**Sending Emails**: Comment Edit Pro is not an email or SMTP plugin. If you have set up email successfully on your site, Comment Edit Pro will use that mechanism.
{% endhint %}

Here is a sample of the emails you will receive.

As you can see, the email contains the original comment and the edited one.

With logs enabled, you can also see a history of all the edits a commenter makes.
