Mailcoach can store transactional mails, record any opens and clicks, and even resend them.

Getting started#

To work with transactional mails in Mailcoach, you should use
Spatie\Mailcoach\Domain\TransactionalMail\Mails\Concerns\StoresMail trait on your Mailable class.

Storing mails#

In the
build function of your mailable, you should call the store method provided by the trait.

class YourMailable extends Mailable
{
    public function build()
    {
        $this
            ->store()
            ->view('mails.your-mailable')
    }
}

Whenever this mailable is sent, Mailcoach will store and display it in the UI.

Tracking opens and clicks#

Optionally, you can detect opens and clicks of a mailable by calling trackOpensAndClicks

class YourMailable extends Mailable
{
    public function build()
    {
        $this
            ->trackOpensAndClicks()
            ->view('mails.your-mailable')
    }
}

Should you only want to track opens or clicks you can call trackOpens or trackClicks.

Tracking opens and/or clicks implies that Mailcoach will store the mail, so you don’t need to call store separately.

Resending stored mails#

You can resend stored transactional mails via the UI or by calling resend on the Spatie\Mailcoach\Domain\TransactionalMail\Models\TransactionalMail model

TransactionalMail::find($id)->resend();
