Mailgun integration #12

Closed JasonYao closed 8 years ago

Currently, validation requires the use of mailing services. Mailgun was chosen due to having a clean API that could be worked with.

Currently, DNS settings are all complete, the only issue is whitelisting users. In order for that to occur, a mailbox needs to be set up. Instead of rolling our own, recommended path is to use google's free trial to recieve mail at google inbox, click the confirmation link, then change everything to utilise mailgun, and then cancel the card at the end of the billing period.

Mailgun integration failed, workaround utilised with google's SMTP feature for authentication & validation.
