Default Post Format It is used by different themes to select the format to be applied to a post.
Classic Editor Setting This plugin also gives you an option to keep both Gutenberg and the Classic editor working together at the same time.
Post via e-mail You can set an e-mail address here which you can use to create and publish posts on your blog through e-mail. Whatever you will write in the mail will be posted as a new post. To use this, you'll need to set up a secret e-mail account with a POP3 access.
Mail Server Here you will enter the mail server from which you wil send mail to post directly to your page. For this, you need to have POP3 compatible mail server like gmail, and it will have address such as mail.example.com, which you should enter here. It's a concept we will cover later. You don't have to worry about it right now.
Login Name The email account you will use to send posts.
