The problem to solve
A successful application handoff does not always prove that the provider accepted or delivered the email. Diagnose every layer in order.
Keep WordPress sending errors and mailbox connection health visible when you are away from the WordPress administration panel.

Reproduce the failure with a unique test, inspect the MailBridgeAPI or provider response, confirm mailbox health and only then test recipient delivery.
Authorize the mailbox or configure its compatible SMTP and IMAP connection in the MailBridgeAPI dashboard.
Store the account API key and mailbox API key in server-side environment variables or a secret manager.
Run the request, inspect the JSON response and keep the request or message identifier for support.

The live demo can validate SMTP, IMAP or a supported OAuth provider and issue temporary API keys without creating an account.
MailBridgeAPI links the SMTP and IMAP mailbox you own or are authorized to use to an account API key and a mailbox API key. Every request selects that same mailbox: send from its address, read its received messages, or process them in your applications.
Explore the docsapikey + apikeyboxAPI endpoint requestAction through that mailboxPOST /sendemail/A POST request uses the SMTP connection of the mailbox selected by apikeybox and sends from that mailbox.
GET /getemail/A GET request uses the same mailbox key to retrieve messages from its configured IMAP folders.
YOUR LOGIC. YOUR WORKFLOW.Your authorized application handles the result in its workflows, automations, CRM, support tools, or AI systems.
Connect only a mailbox you own or are authorized to use. The provider must allow compatible SMTP or IMAP access, and its limits still apply.
