Mailgun Integration

Mailgun API is one of the most flexible ways to send email to your customers using a custom domain. Here is a basic guide on how you can integrate the Mailgun provider with MOK.

Setting up Mailgun​

Go to Mailgun and sign up using your credentials such as Name, Email ID and create a password. You can use a free signup either by filling up your credit card details or not, but the custom domain feature is available only for the users who have successfully updated their credit card details.

Obtaining a custom domain​

On your first signup to Mailgun, you are provided with a free sandbox domain (with @mailgun.org domain name) to use. But, you need to create a custom domain using the domain name @unomok.com. You can do so by selecting the Domains option in the sidebar.

You can also simply follow their Docs to get started.
