Motivation

The product "Email API/SMTP" is now "Email Live Sending", with "Live Sending" as the short form. "Email Sending" and "Sending" are older names of the same product. The docs still use the old names in page titles, headings, descriptions and UI paths. The OpenAPI descriptions get the same rename in mailtrap/mailtrap-openapi#64.

Merge this PR when the app shows the new name, not before. Many pages describe the app menus, for example "Navigate to Email Live Sending > Email Templates".

Changes

  • api-docs/: the Overview "Documentation structure" heading and Sandbox note, and the "Email Sending" section in SUMMARY.md, say "Email Live Sending".
  • documentation/ and guides-and-tips/ (57 files): page titles, headings, descriptions, navigation and body text say "Email Live Sending".
  • UI paths use the labels that the app shows: "Live Sending" for the main menu item and the template integration toggle, "Email Live Sending" for the section title and the webhooks option.
  • plans.md: the "Email Live Sending pricing" heading has a new anchor, and its one internal link is updated.
  • CLAUDE.md: the naming guide uses the new name, lists the old names, and lists what stays.
  • Kept as is: "API" and "SMTP" as send methods ("Email API or SMTP", "API/SMTP relay", "Email API v1" tokens), strings inside code samples, and all URLs and file paths with email-api-smtp or api-smtp.

How to test

  • The GitBook preview shows "Email Live Sending" in the navigation of the Documentation and API docs spaces
  • The "Email Live Sending Overview", "FAQs" and "Troubleshooting" pages show the new titles, and their URLs did not change
  • The pricing table link on the Plans page opens the "Email Live Sending pricing" section
  • git grep -n -E "API ?/ ?SMTP|Email Sending" lists only the kept send-method and code-sample mentions

🤖 Generated with Claude Code

The product "Email API/SMTP" is now "Email Live Sending". Use the new
name in the "Documentation structure" section. Doc URLs stay.

LGTM, a question and a nit inline (both non-blocking).

Use the new product name in page titles, headings, descriptions and UI
paths across documentation and guides-and-tips. Keep "API" and "SMTP"
where they name a send method, code samples, URLs and file paths. The
naming guide now lists the old names and these exceptions.

GitBook builds the URL segment from the group heading, so the rename moved the pages and broke the old links. An explicit id keeps /developers/email-sending and /email-api-smtp.
