About Bilbok Bulk Mailer for Flamingo
From the official readme · v3.0.0Description
Bilbok Bulk Mailer for Flamingo lets you send bulk email campaigns to your existing contacts stored by the Flamingo plugin (which is usually fed by Contact Form 7).
The plugin focuses on:
- Safety – emails are sent via a queue with a configurable hourly rate (e.g. 80 emails/hour for Gmail).
- Campaigns – create named campaigns, pick a Flamingo channel and/or add manual email addresses, and let the plugin send them in the background.
- Deliverability – plays nicely with SMTP plugins (e.g. Gmail), avoids spikes, and includes an unsubscribe blacklist.
- Branding – (optional) credit footer at the bottom of each outgoing email.
This plugin does not scrape or collect any emails by itself. It only sends to contacts that already exist in your Flamingo address book and the manual addresses you provide.

No. The plugin simply sends email campaigns to: Contacts saved in Flamingo (via your existing Contact Form 7 forms). Manual email addresses you provide. You are fully responsible for complying with email laws (GDPR, CAN‑SPAM, etc.) and only sending to people who have given you permission.
Can I use it with Gmail?
Yes, and it is designed with Gmail’s limits in mind: You can configure a max emails/hour value (for example 80) in the settings. The queue is processed every 5 minutes, dividing your hourly rate into small chunks. Make sure to use an SMTP plugin configured with your Gmail or Google Workspace account.
Does it work without Flamingo?
No. This plugin is specifically designed to work with Flamingo contacts and channels. However, you can still send to manual email addresses in addition to Flamingo channels.
Can I change or remove the credit footer?
Yes: In Settings → Show credit footer, you can disable the footer entirely. Developers can customize the footer HTML using the filter: bilbok_cf7bm_email_footer_html.
How does the blacklist / unsubscribe feature work?
In Settings → Email blacklist you can enter one email address per line. Those addresses will be excluded from all campaigns even if they appear in Flamingo or manual lists.
Can I change the recipients of an existing campaign?
No. Once a campaign has been created, its recipient list is frozen to preserve queue integrity. If you need different recipients, create a new campaign.
Is this plugin GDPR compliant?
