Setting Up Mail

AI-generated summary

The discussion revolves around setting up mail services for a Discourse installation. Infinite_Flight_Sims is having trouble with mail services, specifically that MailGun doesn’t accept their .ca domain name. However, pfaffman and rorycb contradict this, stating that MailGun does work with .ca domains.

matenauta suggests alternative mail services, including Mailjet, and provides resources for setting up email services. pfaffman and rorycb speculate that the issue may be due to another account having registered the domain on Mailgun.

The conversation concludes with itsbhanusharma advising Infinite_Flight_Sims to raise a support ticket with Mailgun to resolve the issue.

Hello,

I’m in the process of setting up Discourse with digital ocean. Everything is good, but I’m having trouble with the mail services. I have a .ca domain name and MailGun doesn’t accept that. If you know any good mailing services, please tell me, thanks.

Hi there. Welcome.

You can try any of these: discourse/docs/INSTALL-email.md at main · discourse/discourse · GitHub

I’m testing Mailjet and is working very good for the moment. You can chose domains or accounts, their have a free plan that covers the basis (and more that another providers offers).

If you want to recieve mails, you can check that: Configure direct-delivery incoming email for self-hosted sites with Mail-Receiver or try with another provider because Mailjet don’t work as reciever.

That’s not true. I just created one.

Really?

It says that .ca invalid for me

Did you try to create an actual domain? I just created discourse.somebogusdomain.ca.

My domain name is community.globalaviators.ca (Not hosted yet though)

Mailgun definitely works with .ca, I have several setup there. I can’t help you unfortunately, but thought I would chime in to confirm it does work.

Is it possible that some other account has registered that domain on mailgun? That’s the only explanation I can think of.

I don’t know, I’ve bought the domain name and fully own it.

Raise a support ticket with mailgun. Only they can explain why their system isn’t taking your domain.

Ok Thank You, I’ll do that
