    Flagship Plugin · Premium

    Your forum’s
    email, rebuilt.

    VaultMail replaces MyBB’s scattered, hardcoded email infrastructure with a fully managed, ACP-driven system — per-type templates, multi-backend sending, multilingual variants, and a metadata audit log.

    20 email types · 3 sending backends · HTML templates · Developer API

    How VaultMail intercepts
    your forum’s mail

    01 📨

    MyBB calls my_mail()

    Any outgoing email — registration, PM, report, ban — flows through MyBB’s central mail function.

    02 🔍

    VaultMail injects Handler

    Via the my_mailhandler_init hook, VaultMail’s Handler class is injected as the active mail handler.

    03 🎯

    Type is resolved

    The Resolver identifies which of the 20 email types this is — by subject pattern, language strings, or ContextStore context.

    04 🎨

    Template is rendered

    Your custom HTML template is fetched, variables are injected (two-layer extraction), and the language variant is selected.

    05 🚀

    Dispatched & logged

    Email is sent via your chosen backend (PHP mail / SMTP / API). Metadata is written to the audit log — body never stored.

    Features

    Everything you’d expect.
    And what you didn’t know you needed.

    📋

    Per-Type Template Control

    Each of MyBB’s 20 email types gets its own HTML template. Enable or disable VaultMail per type — types you leave off fall back to MyBB’s native mailer seamlessly.

    Selective Override Graceful Fallback
    🌐

    Multilingual Variants

    Create language-specific template variants per email type. VaultMail auto-selects the right variant based on the recipient’s board language — with a configurable fallback.

    Language Detection Fallback Chain
    🔧

    Multi-Backend Sending

    Switch between PHP mail, direct SMTP (with TLS and auth), or a JSON API backend (Mailgun, SendGrid, Postmark, or fully custom) — from the ACP, no code changes.

    PHPMail SMTP+TLS API
    🧪

    Sandbox / Test Mode

    Enable test mode and set a catch address. Every outgoing email is silently redirected there — with a “test” status in the log. No real users get flooded during setup.

    Catch Address Safe Testing
    📊

    Metadata Audit Log

    Every send is logged: recipient, template key, language, backend used, status, and error if any. Email body is never stored. Full ACP search and filtering interface.

    Privacy-Safe Searchable
    ⚡

    Developer API

    Send any VaultMail template programmatically from your own plugin. Pass a template key, recipient, and variable overrides — VaultMail handles rendering and dispatching.

    Plugin Integration Custom Variables
    🛡️

    New Email Types

    VaultMail adds email types MyBB never had: ban notifications, unban notifications, moderation queue alerts — complete with context capture and full template support.

    Ban / Unban Mod Queue
    🎨

    HTML Shell Templates

    Wrap all your emails in a branded shell. The default shell is a clean, professional HTML layout — fully editable from the ACP template editor.

    Custom Shell ACP Editor
    🔄

    Two-Layer Variable Extraction

    Variables are resolved from both pre-send context hooks (timing-independent) and runtime VarExtractor analysis — ensuring rich, accurate variable injection for every email type.

    Coverage

    Every email type,
    under your control.

    20 email types across registration, account management, moderation, subscriptions, and messaging. Some types were never sent by MyBB at all — VaultMail adds them.

    Template Key Description Category Origin
    registration_welcome Registration — Welcome Email Registration MyBB
    registration_activation Registration — Email Activation Registration MyBB
    registration_admin_approve Registration — Admin Approval Notification Registration MyBB

    unban_notification Moderation — User Unbanned Notification Moderation VaultMail ✦
    moderation_queue_alert Moderation — Post Queue Alert to Moderators Moderation VaultMail ✦

    ✦ These email types did not exist in MyBB. VaultMail introduces them.   Showing 15 of 20 types.

    Sending Backends

    One plugin.
    Three ways to deliver.

    Switch backends from the ACP — no code changes, no reinstall. Each backend supports live connection testing before you go live.

    🐘
    PHP Mail
    backend: phpmail

    Delegates to MyBB’s built-in PhpMail handler. Zero configuration required — ideal for shared hosting where you don’t control the mail server.

    • Zero configuration
    • Shared hosting compatible
    • Instant setup
    🔒
    Direct SMTP
    backend: smtp

    Connect directly to your SMTP server with full authentication and TLS support. Works with Gmail, Outlook, Mailjet, and any standard SMTP provider.

    • TLS / STARTTLS encryption
    • Full SMTP authentication
    • Custom host + port
    • Live connection test
    ⚡
    API / Transactional
    backend: api

    Send via a JSON API endpoint. Pre-built support for Mailgun, SendGrid, and Postmark. Or supply your own endpoint for complete flexibility.

    • Mailgun · SendGrid · Postmark
    • Custom endpoint support
    • Bearer or key auth
    • Live connection test
    Developer API

    Send any template
    from your own plugin.

    VaultMail exposes a clean, hookless API for other plugins. Pass a template key, recipient email, and optional variable overrides — rendering, language selection, and dispatch are handled automatically.

    my_plugin.php
    // Send a VaultMail template programmatically
    use VaultBB\VaultMail\API;

    $result = API::send(   ‘registration_welcome’,   ‘[email protected]‘,   [     ‘username’ => ‘Elara’,     ‘board_name’ => ‘MyBoard’,     ‘activation_url’ => $url,   ] );

    if ($result[‘success’]) {   // Logged, templated, dispatched. }
    📦
    Use any existing template
    Reference any of the 20 built-in template keys, or create custom ones. Your plugin doesn’t need to manage templates at all.
    🌐
    Language is resolved automatically
    VaultMail selects the right language variant for the recipient — your plugin stays language-agnostic.
    🔀
    Variable overrides
    Pass custom variables that take priority over VaultMail’s auto-extracted ones. Layer in exactly the context you need.
    📝
    Automatic logging
    Every API send is logged to the VaultMail audit log with triggered_by: api — traceable and auditable alongside native sends.
    Audit Log

    Know exactly what
    was sent — and when.

    VaultMail logs every outgoing email’s metadata: recipient, template type, language, backend, status, and triggered-by source. Email body is never stored — privacy by design.

    Release Notes

    What’s changed.

    dev.0.2 Current
    Feb 21, 2026
    • Improved SMTP & API backends are fully implemented.
    • Added Template engine is done. Language resolution works down the chain (recipient lang → board default → __default__), variables are substituted via {placeholders} sourced from MyBB globals and recipient data, and the shell wrapping is in place. The supporting pieces — under-the-hood private mechanisms — are all there. The ACP editor has live AJAX preview and a test send button that fires a real email to the logged-in admin.
    • Fixed Developer API is complete, including the ACP reference page. API::send() and friends are safe to call even when VaultMail is disabled — they just return false cleanly, no exceptions thrown.
    • Improved Settings UI is in. All the config groups are there — backend selection, SMTP credentials, API provider details, From address, test mode with a catch address, queue and rate limiting. One thing worth mentioning: the test connection button works against whatever is currently typed in the form, no save required first.

    Your forum deserves
    better email.

    How do Rolls Work?

    An example output on the left, the BBCode that produced it on the right.

    🎲 Attack Roll
    #roll-0042
    [dice=warrior|label="Attack Roll"]4d6k3+2[/dice] warrior profile
    16
    Rolls: 6 5 3 1
    Kept top 3  ·  +2 modifier
    expr: 4d6k3+2 · profile: warrior
    ⚔️ Critical Hit — deal double damage!
    1

    The result (16) is rolled and stored the moment the post is submitted — immutable even if the post is edited afterward.

    🎲 Stealth Check
    #roll-0043
    [dice=stealth|hidden]d20[/dice] hidden
    Result hidden from other players.
    Visible only to roller & group leaders.
    🔒 Only you and the GM can see this
    2

    The hidden attribute restricts visibility to the roller and GM-group members. The result is still stored and admin-auditable.

    How a Roll Happens

    From BBCode tag to locked database record — in a single request.

    01

    User Posts

    A member writes a post with one or more [dice] tags and submits.

    02

    Server Rolls

    Before saving, the engine resolves each expression server-side using PHP’s random_int().

    03

    Results Stored

    Each roll is written to a dedicated table with a full breakdown JSON — permanently.

    04

    Rules Applied

    Profile rules are evaluated. If a condition matches, a custom block is rendered below the result.

    05

    Displayed

    The roll card appears in the post. Editing later cannot change what was stored.

    Feature breakdown

    Built for Serious Games

    Every mechanic designed with tabletop and RPG forums in mind.

    Drop / Keep

    Roll more, count less

    Standard tabletop notation — 4d6k3 keeps the highest three, 4d6d1 drops the lowest one. Dropped dice are always shown in the breakdown, crossed out, so every roll is fully transparent.

    k suffix — keep highest d suffix — drop lowest Breakdown always shown
    4d6k3+2 #roll-0011
    Die 1 6
    Die 2 5
    Die 3 3
    Die 4 1 (dropped)
    Modifier +2
    Total 16
    Dice Profiles

    One slug, every rule

    Create profiles with a name, a slug, an optional forced expression, and optional result bounds. Reference them by slug in any post — the profile enforces everything, regardless of what the user typed inside the tag.

    Forced expression Min / Max bounds Slug reference

    Conditional Rendering

    Rules that react to results

    Define rules per profile — each matches a range, an exact value, a minimum or maximum. When a roll hits the condition, a custom text or image block is automatically rendered beneath the result card. Zero extra work for your players.
