config/plugins.js
// config/plugins.jsmodule.exports = ({ env }) => ({email: {config: {provider: "nodemailer",providerOptions: {host: "smtp.parcelwing.com",port: 587,secure: false,auth: {user: "parcelwing",pass: env("PARCELWING_API_KEY"),},},settings: {defaultFrom: "Acme <[email protected]>",defaultReplyTo: "[email protected]",},},},});
Use a verified sender
Your from address should belong to a sending domain that is verified in Parcel Wing. This keeps SPF, DKIM, and DMARC aligned for better deliverability.
Troubleshooting
- Use port
587with STARTTLS, not implicit TLS on port 465. - Use
parcelwingas the username and an active Parcel Wing API key as the password. - Make sure the sender address uses a verified sending domain.
- If a vendor has a test email button, send a test before enabling production email.
