Only use Mandrill for one plugin

    The Mandrill plugin by default captures all wp_mail calls. Our requirement needs Mandrill only for select outbound mails. We of course want to keep coding to a minimum. Has anyone developed an quick method of preventing wp_mail from going through Mandrill unless specified?

    Of course the obvious answer is don’t use the plugin – use the API in my plugin.

    Using the Mandrill plugin exposes some nice metrics on the WordPress dashboard, but we only want to use Mandrill for a limited set of our outbound WP email.

    Other recommendations?

    I could have this solution wrong, and I’m going to assume you have a bit of wordpress development experience.

    To force WP to use the native wp_mail() function, you could use this:

    function force_native_wp_mail( $message ) {
   $message['force_native'] = 1;
   return $message;
}
add_filter( 'wp_mail', 'force_native_wp_mail' );

    How you then use that filter as and when you need it, is up to you.
    Hope that helps.
    Paul.
