Do different shows need separate email accounts or SMTP setups?
No. All Benecaster emails — across every show on your site — go through WordPress’s mail system, which uses a single SMTP connection configured once for the whole site. You configure SMTP once using a plugin like WP Mail SMTP or Fluent SMTP, and every show uses it.
Each show has its own From name and From address. A subscriber to “Crypto Curious Podcast” sees that show’s name and address in their inbox; a subscriber to “Daily Tech Brief” sees that show’s. These are email headers set per message — not separate accounts or sending credentials.
The one exception: if your shows use From addresses on different domains (e.g., one show sends from hello@cryptopodcast.com and another from hello@techbrief.fm), each domain needs to be authorized in your SMTP provider and have SPF and DKIM records set up. If both shows use the same domain, no extra configuration is needed.
