## Description

MailBridgeAPI Email Delivery connects WordPress to a mailbox that is centrally managed
in MailBridgeAPI. It does not ask for or store the mailbox SMTP password in WordPress.
After an administrator authenticates the MailBridgeAPI account and locks one mailbox
to the site, outgoing messages are delivered through the MailBridgeAPI HTTPS API.

This is useful when an agency or business manages the same mailbox across several
websites or applications. SMTP and IMAP settings stay in one dashboard: changing
a mailbox password or server setting does not require editing every connected WordPress
installation. Delivery activity can also be reviewed from the MailBridgeAPI dashboard
and mobile app.

The connection flow is designed for agencies and multi-client accounts:

 * Sign in using the email address and password used for the MailBridgeAPI dashboard.
 * Review the mailboxes available to that account and test SMTP or IMAP when configured.
 * Select the mailbox reserved for this WordPress site.
 * After selection, the plugin hides every other account mailbox. Changing the mailbox
   requires a complete disconnect and a new sign-in.
 * Review delivery results in **MailBridgeAPI > Sent emails** and aggregate results
   in **MailBridgeAPI > Statistics**.
 * Send a real end-to-end test email and inspect its MailBridgeAPI message identifier.
 * Review connection, runtime, API availability and plugin-conflict checks under**
   MailBridgeAPI > Diagnostics**.
 * Choose and remember the plugin interface language independently from the WordPress
   administration language. English is used whenever a translation is unavailable.

The dashboard password is used only for the HTTPS authentication request and is 
never stored. The account token and selected API keys are encrypted with AES-256-
GCM using a key derived from the WordPress authentication salt.

#### Email compatibility

The plugin intercepts `wp_mail()`, so it works with WordPress core, WooCommerce 
and plugins that use the standard WordPress mail function. It supports plain-text
and HTML messages, Reply-To, CC, BCC and up to two attachments. If MailBridgeAPI
is disconnected, WordPress returns to its original mail transport.

#### How this differs from a local SMTP plugin

The plugin does not store SMTP host names, usernames or mailbox passwords on the
WordPress server. It stores encrypted MailBridgeAPI access credentials for only 
the selected mailbox and sends mail through the MailBridgeAPI API. Mailbox configuration
remains centralized, other mailboxes on the same agency account are hidden after
selection, and delivery can be monitored outside WordPress from the dashboard and
mobile app.

#### Local logging

The local WordPress database stores recipient address, subject, delivery result,
provider response, remote message identifier and UTC date. Message bodies and attachments
are not stored in the local log. Retention can be set to 30, 90, 180 or 365 days.
The plugin integrates its local records with WordPress personal data export and 
erasure tools.

#### External services

This plugin requires a MailBridgeAPI account and communicates with services operated
by MailBridgeAPI:

 * `https://dashboard.mailbridgeapi.com/api/mobile/v1/auth/login/` authenticates
   the administrator. It receives the dashboard email address and password, this
   site’s host name, plugin version, WordPress locale and notification preference.
 * `https://dashboard.mailbridgeapi.com/api/mobile/v1/mailboxes/` returns mailboxes
   belonging to the authenticated account.
 * `https://dashboard.mailbridgeapi.com/api/mobile/v1/mailboxes/{id}/test/` runs
   an SMTP or IMAP connection test for the selected mailbox identifier.
 * `https://dashboard.mailbridgeapi.com/api/mobile/v1/auth/logout/` revokes the 
   local dashboard session when the site disconnects.
 * `https://api.mailbridgeapi.com/sendemail/` delivers WordPress email. It receives
   the selected account and mailbox API keys, recipient addresses, sender name/address,
   subject, body, supported headers and attachments.
    Service availability, remote
   processing and remote retention are governed by the [MailBridgeAPI privacy policy](https://mailbridgeapi.com/privacy-policy/)
   and [terms and conditions](https://mailbridgeapi.com/terms-and-conditions-of-sale/).

## Installation

 1. Upload the `mailbridgeapi-email-delivery` folder to `/wp-content/plugins/`, or 
    install the ZIP from **Plugins > Add New > Upload Plugin**.
 2. Activate **MailBridgeAPI Email Delivery**.
 3. Open **MailBridgeAPI > Connection**.
 4. Enter the email address and password used for your MailBridgeAPI dashboard.
 5. Test and select the mailbox reserved for this WordPress site.
 6. Trigger a normal WordPress or WooCommerce email, then verify it under **MailBridgeAPI
    > Sent emails**.
 7. Open **MailBridgeAPI > Diagnostics** and confirm that no critical item remains.

## FAQ

### Can another WordPress administrator see my other client mailboxes after setup?

No. Once a mailbox is selected, the plugin stores only that selected mailbox and
no longer displays the account mailbox list. An administrator must disconnect and
authenticate again to choose another mailbox.

### Is my dashboard password stored in WordPress?

No. It is used once for the secure authentication request and then discarded. The
resulting session token and API keys are encrypted before database storage.

### What happens when I disconnect?

The encrypted MailBridgeAPI connection is removed. Calls to `wp_mail()` return to
the transport configured by WordPress or another active mail plugin.

### Does the plugin store email content?

The local delivery log does not store the message body or attachments. It stores
delivery metadata including recipient, subject, result, provider response, message
ID and date.

### Which attachments are supported?

Up to two readable attachments are supported, with a maximum of 5 MB each and 10
MB in total. WordPress 6.9 embedded-image attachments are not supported; use hosted
image URLs or regular attachments.

### Why is a message shown as an error?

Open **MailBridgeAPI > Sent emails** to see the provider response. Verify the MailBridgeAPI
subscription, mailbox SMTP configuration and recipient address.
