// ── Outbound mail ──────────────────────────────────────────────────────────
//
// Email is configured in Admin → Settings → Email, not via env vars. The
// `email_config` singleton holds the enabled flag, the sender identity and the
// AES-GCM-encrypted credential for whichever transport is selected; the transport
// itself is a registration in `src/engagement/transports` (ENGAGEMENT.md §3.1),
// so which provider is used is DATA, not a code path in this file.
//
// Gmail OAuth2 was removed in engagement Phase 1 (§1.2a). Gmail is still reachable
// as an ordinary SMTP relay (`smtp.gmail.com:587` with an app password) — the
// operator types those in like any other host; nothing in here knows about it.
//
// **The failure contracts are the point of this file.** Six call sites, five
// senders, and each one degrades a specific way when mail is unconfigured. Those
// contracts are unchanged by the transport rewrite and are asserted in
// test/mailer.test.js: sendContactMessage returns a mailto fallback, sendInvite
// and sendPasswordReset return { sent: false, reason: 'NOT_CONFIGURED' } so their
// callers can surface a link / answer a generic 200, sendTeamNotification never
// throws at all, and only sendTest throws — because only sendTest has an admin
// waiting to be told why.

 * sender address, an incomplete credential, or a stored transport id that is not
 * registered (a downgrade, or a provider removed from the build). The last one is
 * the reason `transports.get()` is checked rather than assumed: a send-time
 * exception from an unknown id would break the contact form for a reason the
 * admin screen already shows.
 *
 * **`enabled` is checked here now, and it was not before.** Under the connect
 * flow this function tested only "is there a refresh token and a sender", so the
 * contact form kept sending after an admin unticked "Enable email sending" —
 * `isConfigured()` honoured the toggle but the direct senders bypassed it. With
 * the toggle no longer set as a side effect of a consent redirect it has to mean
 * what it says, so the gate lives on the one path every sender shares.
