Mailgun tutorial – Step-by-step setup with API key and SMTP for beginners

Mailgun is a user-friendly and reliable email delivery service that you can easily setup for a website, app or custom software. In this tutorial you will learn to connect both with an API key to a WordPress website and with SMTP credentials for sending emails with MailPoet. Correction: For the safest SMTP connection use port 465 with TLS. If port 465 is not working use 587 with TLS or SSL instead. Port 25 is not a safe option and should be avoided. –––––––––––––––––––––––––––– 00:00 Introduction 01:38 Create a free Mailgun account 02:22 Setup a new domain 03:17 Setting up DNS records 07:21 Create an API key 07:50 Connecting to WordPress with an API key 08:34 FROM email address 09:03 Email test 09:41 Create SMTP credentials 10:25 Connecting to MailPoet with SMTP credentials 11:37 Outtro –––––––––––––––––––––––––––– View the tutorial on my website here: https://wpexplainer.com/wordpress-tutorials/mailgun-tutorial-for-beginners
