SSL for PHP default to send mail via SSL from contact forms from wordpress sites

I wanted to see if anyone has setup wordpress/cwp to default to SSL for sending your email when people fill out contact forms.  Today, mine doesn't appear to do so and I have to manually setup a Wordpress SMTP plugin to get it to work.  I was wondering how one can setup to default to this on the server back end  to avoid this extra leg work.

Depends on how are you sending mails.
If you sending via "mail" Wordpress php function, the connection need send via SMTP TLS connection.
