Repository metrics are context, not quality scores. Active installations measure adoption and can strongly reflect a plugin’s age and historical popularity. Ratings, recent updates and “Tested up to” metadata also do not guarantee modern code, error-free operation, security, feature completeness or suitability for a particular site.

Overview

About this plugin

0 and earlier contain fixed vulnerabilities (unauthenticated arbitrary list subscription, weak SHA-1/MD5 hashing). We strongly recommend updating to the latest version immediately.

Mailgun is the email automation engine trusted by over 10,000 website and application developers for sending, receiving and tracking emails. By taking advantage of Mailgun’s powerful email APIs, developers can spend more time building awesome websites and less time fighting with email servers. Mailgun supports all of the most popular languages including PHP, Ruby, Python, C# and Java.

One particularly useful feature of this plugin is that it provides you with a way to send email when the server you are on does not support SMTP or where outbound SMTP is restricted since the plug-in uses the Mailgun HTTP API for sending email by default. All you need to use the plugin is a Mailgun account. Mailgun has a free account that lets you send up to 200 emails per day, which is great for testing.

Paid subscriptions are available for increased limits.

The latest version of this plugin now supports regions. /North America or Europe to choose the API endpoint from which you will send email.

The current version of this plugin only handles sending emails, tracking and tagging and list subscription.
