Solve the mail server spam issue #1

Closed gaborcsardi closed 5 years ago

gaborcsardi commented 6 years ago

Mails from r-hub are considered as spam, often, because the r-hub server is not supposed to send emails, according to the MX records.

Possible solutions:

  1. Ask Linux Consortium IT to relay mail from r-hub. Ask them already, waiting for answer.
  2. Ask Linux Consortium IT to add MX records for mailgun. Done, waiting for anser.
  3. Send mail via mailgun's HTTP API. This requires some rewrite in the front end app, unfortunately.

I will just use https://www.npmjs.com/package/mailgun-js

Seems like this (option 3) needs some MX records set, still, to prove that I own the domain. I wrote one final email to the IT, and if they don't help by Tue morning, I'll register another domain, with a similar name to r-hub.io, and send the emails from there.
