Codo Mailer delivers your site's email through an email provider that you choose and configure. It does not contact any service until you save a connection in Settings > Codo Mailer (or define one in wp-config.php<\/code>), and it only ever contacts the providers you have configured. It never sends data to Codo Digital.<\/p>\n\nWhen data is sent:<\/strong> every time WordPress sends an email through wp_mail()<\/code> (for example password resets, new-user notifications, WooCommerce orders and form notifications), when you use \"Send a test\", and when you resend an email from the log. The primary connection is used first; the backup connection is contacted only if the primary fails.<\/p>\n\nWhat is sent:<\/strong> the email itself: sender, recipients (To, Cc, Bcc), Reply-To, subject, body, attachments and any custom headers, plus the credentials you entered for that provider so it can authenticate the request (for Amazon SES, your access key ID and a signature made with your secret key; the secret key itself is never sent).<\/p>\n\nAmazon SES (Amazon Web Services)<\/h4>\n\n
Amazon Simple Email Service is an email sending service. If you choose it, each email is sent to the SES API endpoint for the region you select (email.<region>.amazonaws.com<\/code>), signed with your access keys.<\/p>\n\n\n- Terms: https:\/\/aws.amazon.com\/service-terms\/<\/li>\n
- Privacy: https:\/\/aws.amazon.com\/privacy\/<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n
Postmark (ActiveCampaign)<\/h4>\n\n
Postmark is a transactional email service. If you choose it, each email is sent to api.postmarkapp.com<\/code> with your server token.<\/p>\n\n\n- Terms: https:\/\/postmarkapp.com\/terms-of-service<\/li>\n
- Privacy: https:\/\/www.activecampaign.com\/legal\/privacy-policy<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n
Mailgun (Sinch Email)<\/h4>\n\n
Mailgun is an email sending service. If you choose it, each email is sent to api.eu.mailgun.net<\/code> (EU region) or api.mailgun.net<\/code> (US region), depending on your setting, with your API key.<\/p>\n\n\n- Terms: https:\/\/www.mailgun.com\/legal\/terms\/<\/li>\n
- Privacy: https:\/\/www.mailgun.com\/legal\/privacy-policy\/<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n
Brevo<\/h4>\n\n
Brevo is an email and marketing platform with a transactional email API. If you choose it, each email is sent to api.brevo.com<\/code> with your API key.<\/p>\n\n\n- Terms: https:\/\/www.brevo.com\/legal\/termsofuse\/<\/li>\n
- Privacy: https:\/\/www.brevo.com\/legal\/privacypolicy\/<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n
SendGrid (Twilio)<\/h4>\n\n
SendGrid is an email sending service. If you choose it, each email is sent to api.sendgrid.com<\/code> with your API key.<\/p>\n\n\n- Terms: https:\/\/www.twilio.com\/en-us\/legal\/tos<\/li>\n
- Privacy: https:\/\/www.twilio.com\/en-us\/legal\/privacy<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n
SMTP server<\/h4>\n\n
If you choose SMTP, each email is sent to the SMTP server you enter (your mailbox provider, host or any other server), with the username and password you enter. Its terms and privacy policy are those of whoever runs that server.<\/p>\n\n
Failure alert webhook (optional)<\/h4>\n\n
If you enter a webhook URL (for example a Slack incoming webhook), Codo Mailer posts a JSON alert to that URL when an email fails to send, at most once an hour by default. The alert contains the site name, site URL, the failed email's subject, the error message and the time. Nothing is posted if the field is left empty. The service's terms and privacy policy are those of whoever provides that URL; for Slack: https:\/\/slack.com\/main-services-agreement and https:\/\/slack.com\/trust\/privacy\/privacy-policy<\/p>\n\n\n
\n- Install from Plugins > Add New, or upload the
codo-mailer<\/code> folder to \/wp-content\/plugins\/<\/code>.<\/li>\n- Activate the plugin.<\/li>\n
- Go to Settings > Codo Mailer, choose a provider and enter its credentials.<\/li>\n
- Use the \"Send a test\" tab to confirm delivery.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n
Until a primary connection is saved, WordPress keeps sending email the way it did before.<\/p>\n\n\n
\nDo I need an account with an email provider?<\/h3><\/dt>\nYes. Codo Mailer connects your site to a provider; it doesn't send email itself. Amazon SES, Postmark, Mailgun, Brevo and SendGrid all have free or low-cost tiers, or you can use your existing mailbox's SMTP server.<\/p><\/dd>\n
Does it work with WooCommerce and form plugins?<\/h3><\/dt>\nYes. Anything that sends through wp_mail()<\/code> goes through Codo Mailer.<\/p><\/dd>\nWhy can't I resend a password-reset email?<\/h3><\/dt>\nThe reset link was redacted before logging, so the logged copy no longer contains it. Ask the user to request a new reset, which is also safer.<\/p><\/dd>\n
What happens if both connections fail?<\/h3><\/dt>\nThe failure is logged with each provider's error, WordPress's wp_mail_failed<\/code> action fires, and an alert goes to your alert email and\/or webhook.<\/p><\/dd>\nDoes it send any data to Codo Digital?<\/h3><\/dt>\nNo. It talks only to the email provider (and alert webhook) you configure.<\/p><\/dd>\n
Is it multisite compatible?<\/h3><\/dt>\nYes. Each site has its own settings and log, managed by super admins only. Constants in wp-config.php<\/code> apply to every site in the network.<\/p><\/dd>\nCan I send an email with only Bcc recipients?<\/h3><\/dt>\nOver SMTP, Amazon SES and Mailgun, yes. Postmark, Brevo and SendGrid require at least one To address and will report an error.<\/p><\/dd>\n
Will a failure slow my site down?<\/h3><\/dt>\nEach provider call times out after 15 seconds. Failure alerts are sent at the end of the request, after the page has been delivered where the server supports it, so visitors don't wait for them.<\/p><\/dd>\n\n<\/dl>\n\n\n
