Mailgun feature is still not working after testing different approaches

[jkbaseer]

Hello Guys, I have been trying this mailgun in every possible approaches i could but none of them is working.

I read the mailgun notes from vulcan on this both doc http://docs.vulcanjs.org/settings.html http://docs.vulcanjs.org/email.html#Setup

1. I put this in settings.json mailUrl: “smtp://postmaster@mail.ideasforsocial.org:dummypassword@smtp.mailgun.org:587/“ (Based on http://docs.vulcanjs.org/settings.html screenshot. According to that username should be default which is Postmaster)

That doesn't work.

2. I tried like this mailUrl: “smtp://jkbaseer@mail.ideasforsocial.org:dummypassword@smtp.mailgun.org:587/“ without using default This doesn't work as well.

3. Non Vulcan documents https://themeteorchef.com/tutorials/mailing-lists-with-mailgun { "private": { "MAIL_URL": "", "mailgun": { "apiKey": "", "domain": "" // e.g. sandbox1b176ab9a55047589736c38949427780.mailgun.org } } }

Doesn't work as well.

would you be able to advice why? Do we need to change anywhere except settings.json or I need any additional password for it? Also this debugging will be very useful if it works

could you kindly advice ?

If postmaster@mail.ideasforsocial.org is your username then you have to encode the @. So it should be: postmaster%40mail.ideasforsocial.org.

Thanks Sacha. Is this %40 is for every @ symbol or just only in settings.json?

I converted like this

"defaultEmail": "ideasforsocial@gmail.com", "mailUrl": "smtp://postmaster%40mail.ideasforsocial.org:dummypass%40smtp.mailgun.org:587/",

[SachaG]

You only need to convert the first @.

i have tried putting only on the first and then the last part as normal. It's still not working. I try to comment, add new post, none of them automate any triggers. I have checked mailgun settings, everything looks perfect (All records are verified and active, Credit card is added, the manual test works)

"defaultEmail": "ideasforsocial@gmail.com", "mailUrl": "smtp://postmaster%40mail.ideasforsocial.org:######@smtp.mailgun.org:587/",

can there be any disconnection with Mail Package?
