It’s clearly something wrong I am doing - or not doing
The cache is a great hint as I was not clearing it after every try, so… that’s a great starting point. I am sure not clearing the cache has made useless many of my attempts.
The config you wrote above should work as you say, thanks for writing it down as a confirmation.
Very valuable lesson learned here!! Clearing the cache was the main culprit.
For future reference this is the format that works greatly:
MAIL_MAILER=mailgun
MAILGUN_DOMAIN=‘your mailgun registered domain’
MAILGUN_SECRET=‘the long api key here’
Want to thank you again for all the help and patience 🙏
My pleasure.
At least you learnt the importance of cache by the hard way (maybe the hardest way) around, you will never forget it again
Congratulations, enjoy your mails (free for 3 months) with mailgun. By the way, API is the fastest and safest way to implement it, glad it worked as expected and you did not used the smtp solution.
Have a nice day
