I had cause to reset my SMTP password in mailgun. I re-ran the discourse set up ( twice double checking the password) but I still cannot send email. I followed the help at This Question and found the message “Mailgun is not loving your login or password” The login has not changed and I have …

You should use the one that mailgun said to use. So take discourse out of the username.

Are you confusing the API key and the smtp password?

I dont think so. The only thing I changed was DISCOURSE_SMTP_PASSWORD in Discourse Setup and the password in MailGun

And it came from somewhere that looked like this? (Except there’s a green “verified” box instead of “unverified”.) [image]

Yes. Only with my domain name instead of d.Itcmp.net and different IP Address, API Key and password.

You want the password, though, not the API Key.

Yes the default password. I have checked several times Could there be some expectation about the password? Over 26 characters for example? I have only started look at MX records etc because I don’t know what else to check.

I got confused because the 30 minute set up instructions had [postmaster@discourse.example.com]: and postmaster@discourse.mydomain.com did actually work for me at first strangely.
