Fix email system error handling and remove hardcoded credentials

- Handle missing email sessions gracefully without throwing errors
- Clear partial session data when no valid session exists
- Return empty results instead of 401 errors for missing credentials
- Remove hardcoded Documenso API key and require env variables
- Reduce email fetch limit from 50 to 20 for performance
- Add documentation for email system fixes

+# Email System Fixes
+
+## Issues Addressed
+
+### 1. Email Credentials Not Found Errors
+- **Problem**: The system was trying to fetch emails even when no credentials were present
+- **Solution**: 
+  - Added session ID check in `EmailThreadView` before attempting to fetch emails
+  - Modified `fetch-thread` API to return empty results instead of throwing errors when credentials are missing
+  - Added proper session cleanup in `EmailCommunication` component
+
+### 2. 502 Gateway Timeout Errors
+- **Problem**: Email fetching was causing timeouts, especially when editing/saving interest cards
+- **Solution**:
+  - Reduced email fetch limit from 50 to 20 emails
+  - Added 15-second timeout for IMAP connections
+  - Prevented unnecessary email fetches when no session exists
+
+### 3. EOI Generation Issues
+- **Problem**: EOI generation may fail due to missing Documenso configuration
+- **Solution**:
+  - Added environment variable validation for `NUXT_DOCUMENSO_API_KEY` and `NUXT_DOCUMENSO_BASE_URL`
+  - Improved error messages to indicate when configuration is missing
+
+## Required Environment Variables
+
+Make sure these are set in your `.env` file:
+
+```env
+# Email Configuration
+NUXT_EMAIL_ENCRYPTION_KEY=your-32-character-encryption-key
+NUXT_EMAIL_IMAP_HOST=mail.portnimara.com
+NUXT_EMAIL_IMAP_PORT=993
+NUXT_EMAIL_SMTP_HOST=mail.portnimara.com
+NUXT_EMAIL_SMTP_PORT=587
+NUXT_EMAIL_LOGO_URL=https://portnimara.com/logo.png
+
+# Documenso Configuration (REQUIRED for EOI generation)
+NUXT_DOCUMENSO_API_KEY=your-actual-api-key
+NUXT_DOCUMENSO_BASE_URL=https://signatures.portnimara.dev
+```
+
+## How It Works Now
+
+1. **Email Session Management**:
+   - Sessions are stored in browser's sessionStorage
+   - If no session exists, email features are gracefully disabled
+   - Users can connect/disconnect at any time
+
+2. **Email Fetching**:
+   - Only attempts to fetch when valid session exists
+   - Limited to 20 emails to prevent timeouts
+   - Falls back to cached emails from MinIO if IMAP fails
+   - 15-second timeout prevents hanging connections
+
+3. **EOI Generation**:
+   - Validates all required fields before attempting generation
+   - Checks for Documenso configuration
+   - Returns clear error messages if configuration is missing
+   - Inserts client's signing link directly into email body
+
+## Troubleshooting
+
+If you're still experiencing issues:
+
+1. **Check Docker logs**: `docker logs <container-name>`
+2. **Verify environment variables are set correctly**
+3. **Ensure Documenso API credentials are valid**
+4. **Try disconnecting and reconnecting email credentials**
