Use WordPress? Use email? Use both!

== Description ==

WP By Email enables you to use WordPress by email:

* Get instant notifications when posts or comments are published.

* Ensure you're always notified when your username is mentioned.

* Reply to posts or comments by email.

* Create new posts with a secret email address.

Perfect for communicating with your team while on the go.

Users can change their communication preferences from the default of all posts and comments using profile settings. A special setting can ensure they always receive an email when their username is mentioned.

Want another feature added? [Send us a pull request](https://github.com/danielbachhuber/WP-By-Email/) and we'll consider it. Reply by email depends on a [young email reply parsing class](https://github.com/humanmade/What-The-Email) — there's the chance a comment will appear oddly, and we welcome improvements to the regex.

== Installation ==

Want to get started using the plugin? Follow these steps:

1. Download and install the plugin in your plugins directory.

1. Activate the plugin.

1. Profit!

By default, all users will receive all post and comment notifications.

Enabling posting or replying by email takes a few more steps:

1. Register a Gmail or similar email account that supports IMAP.

1. Add the code snippet below with account details to your theme's functions.php file. It tells WP By Email that you're set up to use post or reply by email.

1. Install [wp-cli](http://wp-cli.org/) and set up a system cron job to regularly call `wp wp-by-email ingest-emails`.

`add_filter( 'wpbe_email_replies_enabled', '__return_true' );

add_filter( 'wpbe_emails_reply_to_email', function( $email ) {

	return '[email protected]';

});

add_filter( 'wpbe_imap_connection_details', function( $details ) {

	$details['host'] = '{imap.gmail.com:993/imap/ssl/novalidate-cert}';

	$details['username'] = '[email protected]';

	$details['password'] = 'PASSWORD';

	return $details;

} );`

== Changelog ==

= 1.1 (??? ?? ????) =

* Renamed the plugin to "WP By Email" to better reflect that it's theme-agnostic. If you were using P2 By Email before, you'll need to rename any `p2be_` filters to their `wpbe_` equivalents.

* Allow the "From Address" to be filtered. [Thanks westonruter](https://github.com/westonruter).

* Better multisite support: user notification settings are on a site-by-site basis. [Thanks jeremyfelt](https://github.com/jeremyfelt).

* Bug fix: Fix from: mailing address when site uses HTTPS. [Thanks rjmackay](https://github.com/rjmackay).

= 1.0 (May 8, 2013) =
