# Mailpit Integration Plugin for Lando

The official [Mailpit](https://mailpit.axllent.org) integration plugin for [Lando](https://lando.dev). Mailpit is a modern email testing tool for developers that makes it easy to test email sending in your local development environment.

## Features

- ✅ A Mailpit service for receiving emails
- ✅ Mailpit UI accessible at http and https routes
- ✅ Automatic configuration of services to send mail to Mailpit
- ✅ Automatic installation of Mailpit sendmail client and configuration into services that need it

## Installation

```bash
lando plugin-add @lando/mailpit
```

## Usage

### 1. Configure your Landofile

Add a mailpit service to your landofile:

```yaml
services:
  mailpit:
    type: mailpit:1.27
    mailFrom: # Defaults to appserver.
      - appserver

# Optionally proxy the Mailpit UI to a custom URL.
proxy:
  mailpit:
    - myapp.lndo.site/mailpit
```

The `mailFrom` option is an array of services that will be configured to send mail to Mailpit. By default, this will be the `appserver` service.

For detailed configuration options, see our [configuration documentation](docs/config.md).

### 2. Send and View Emails

Send mail from your PHP app:

```php
<?php
$to = 'recipient@example.com';
$subject = 'Test email from My App';
$message = 'This is a test email sent via PHP.';
$headers = [
    'From: sender@example.com',
    'Content-Type: text/plain; charset=utf-8'
];

mail($to, $subject, $message, implode("\r\n", $headers));
```

View captured emails in the Mailpit UI at the proxy URL configured above:
- http://myapp.lndo.site/mailpit
