External services

This plugin requires an Enginemailer account and connects to the Enginemailer REST API at https://api.enginemailer.com to deliver email. The connection occurs whenever WordPress sends an email through wp_mail(), including when an administrator uses the Send Test Email feature.

By default, each API request sends the configured Enginemailer API key, recipient addresses (To, CC, and BCC), sender name and email address, subject, email body, and any configured campaign name or template ID. If an email includes attachments, the plugin reads those local files and sends their filenames and Base64-encoded contents. Developers may modify the outbound payload or request using the plugin’s documented filters.

Enginemailer provides the email delivery service. Review its Terms of Service and Privacy Policy.

Privacy

This plugin stores limited email metadata to aid troubleshooting and deliverability monitoring:

• Stored: recipient email address(es), subject, send status (sent/failed), timestamp, and an error message when available.
• Not stored: email body content or attachments.
• Retention: logs are kept for 90 days by default and purged daily. Developers can adjust the retention via the enjinmel_smtp_retention_days filter, clear logs from the admin UI, or purge on uninstall by defining ENJINMEL_SMTP_PURGE_LOGS_ON_UNINSTALL in wp-config.php.
