## Description

Prostyle SMTP configures the WordPress PHPMailer through official WordPress hooks.
Version 1.1.0 supports classic SMTP delivery with freely configurable host, port,
encryption and authentication, hosting relays, and Microsoft 365 OAuth2 / XOAUTH2.

The plugin does not add telemetry, does not display advertising and does not include
upsells. OAuth2 connections are optional and are started only after an administrator
configures the provider and clicks the connect button.

SMTP passwords, OAuth client secrets and OAuth tokens are encrypted locally with
AES-256-GCM and WordPress salts. Email message bodies and attachment contents are
never stored by the mail log.

Each wp_mail() call can receive a request-local Request ID and a unique Trace ID.
Normal emails run without SMTP debugging. Detailed SMTP diagnostics are captured
only for explicitly started diagnostic test emails and are redacted before display
or download.

Prostyle SMTP does not retry, queue or resend emails. A successful SMTP hand-off
means that the configured mail server accepted the message; it does not guarantee
inbox placement.

### External services

When Microsoft 365 OAuth2 is selected and an administrator starts the connection,
the plugin sends the administrator to the Microsoft identity platform and exchanges
authorization or refresh tokens with Microsoft token endpoints. The requested delegated
SMTP scope is `https://outlook.office.com/SMTP.Send` plus `offline_access` for refresh
tokens. Microsoft privacy information: https://privacy.microsoft.com/privacystatement

OAuth2 is optional. No OAuth authorization, token exchange or token refresh request
is sent unless an administrator configures and connects the selected provider. The
plugin does not send diagnostic data to Prostylemedia automatically.

### Privacy

Prostyle SMTP can store a local technical mail log when logging is enabled. The 
log can include timestamps, delivery status, SMTP metadata, the mail origin, attachment
count, masked or full recipient addresses depending on the selected setting, and
optionally the email subject.

New installations use masked recipient storage by default and do not store email
subjects by default. Administrators can disable logging, change recipient storage,
enable or disable subject storage, set a retention period, limit the maximum number
of log entries, delete logs and export CSV files.

Email message bodies, HTML content, plain text content, attachment contents, attachment
paths, SMTP passwords, OAuth client secrets, OAuth tokens and authentication data
are not stored in the mail log.

Diagnostic exports are generated only after an administrator action. They are designed
to exclude passwords, authentication headers, cookies, nonces, tokens, full server
paths and email message bodies. Theme and plugin lists are disabled by default for
new installations and can be enabled by administrators for support cases.

The plugin does not add telemetry and does not send diagnostic data to Prostylemedia
or third-party services automatically.

### Assets and Licensing

The plugin code is licensed under GPLv2 or later. The included Prostylemedia logo
assets were created for Prostylemedia and are included by the plugin author for 
use with this GPL-compatible plugin distribution. No third-party JavaScript or CSS
libraries are bundled.

### Uninstall

Deactivating the plugin keeps settings and logs. Deleting the plugin through WordPress
runs uninstall.php and removes plugin-owned settings, transients, database tables,
cron hooks, metadata and plugin-owned files.

## Installation

 1. Upload the release ZIP through Plugins > Add New > Upload Plugin.
 2. Activate Prostyle SMTP.
 3. Open Prostyle SMTP > SMTP Settings.
 4. Choose a provider and enter the SMTP or OAuth values from your mail provider or
    hosting provider.
 5. Save the settings.
 6. Send a test email from the Email Test screen.

## FAQ

### Does the plugin support Microsoft 365 OAuth?

Yes. Version 1.1.0 supports Microsoft 365 business and school accounts through OAuth2/
XOAUTH2. Administrators must create their own Microsoft Entra app, enter the redirect
URI shown by the plugin exactly, add the delegated SMTP.Send permission, store the
Client Secret value in the plugin and connect the mailbox deliberately.

### Does the plugin support Gmail OAuth2?

Gmail OAuth2 is shown as in development, but it is not selectable and not available
in version 1.1.0.

### What happens to existing SMTP settings after updating?

Existing installations stay on the classic SMTP provider. Existing host, port, username,
password and sender settings are preserved.

### Does the plugin store email content?

No. The mail log never stores message bodies, HTML content, plain text content or
attachment contents.

### Does “successfully sent” mean that the email reached the inbox?

No. It means the configured SMTP server accepted the message. Spam filters, SPF,
DKIM, DMARC, mailbox rules and sender reputation can still affect delivery.

### Does the plugin work with form plugins?

Yes, if the form plugin uses the normal WordPress wp_mail() path. Prostyle SMTP 
configures PHPMailer for regular WordPress mail delivery instead of replacing form
plugin logic.

### What is a hosting relay?

A hosting relay is an SMTP service provided by a web host for sending mail from 
websites hosted on that infrastructure. The required host, port, encryption and 
authentication settings depend on the hosting provider.

### Why does the password or Client Secret field stay empty after saving?

SMTP passwords and OAuth Client Secrets are encrypted locally and are not shown 
again in the input field after saving. The plugin shows a status message when a 
credential is stored.

### Which credentials does the plugin store?

The plugin can store classic SMTP passwords, OAuth Client Secrets and OAuth access
or refresh tokens. These values are encrypted locally. Email bodies, attachments
and authentication headers are not stored in the mail log.
