The seed migration also guards against SECRETS_KEY being unset at migrate
time (encrypting the .env password would otherwise throw and take the
whole migration down, on a fresh install as much as in the test suite),
and the four tests/Feature/Mail files written before this migration reset
the mailbox table in their beforeEach so they keep testing what they did
before mailboxes.key collided with the seeded rows.
The old test rotated app.key and expected the password to stay
readable, but Laravel's encrypter is a container singleton resolved
once — config()->set('app.key', ...) never rebuilds it, so the
rotation the test performed was invisible to any code path going
through it. Confirmed by mutation: rewiring Mailbox to Crypt::
encryptString/decryptString (genuinely APP_KEY-keyed, the exact
regression this constraint exists to forbid) left the old test green.
Replace it with two tests: a positive proof that rotating SECRETS_KEY
makes a stored password unreadable (the one that discriminates), and
a separate check that rotating APP_KEY does not, with
forgetInstance('encrypter') so that rotation is actually visible to
whatever the password accessor resolves.
Re-ran the same mutation against the new test: it fails (exit 1, the
SECRETS_KEY test reports the expected DecryptException was not
thrown), then passes again once the mutation is reverted.
Mailbox hand-rolled the same creating-time UUID assignment that
App\Models\Concerns\HasUuid already provides to 17 other models under
R11 (URLs address records by UUID, not integer PK), and skipped the
route-key binding that comes with it. Swap onto the trait, and cover
both the assignment and the route key with a test matching the
convention already used for Host/Order.
Also match MailboxFactory's @extends annotation to how the other
factories in the repo write it (Pint's fully_qualified_strict_types
rule turns a fully-qualified docblock reference into an import plus a
short name anyway, so this is what it would end up as either way).
