Mailgun configuration help

You need to change your driver.

MAIL_DRIVER=mailgun

The other two just use your own settings which I'm sure you've done.

MAILGUN_DOMAIN=xxx.mailgun.org
MAILGUN_SECRET=xxx

That's it :)

@mstnorris I had this in my .env file :

MAIL_DRIVER=smtp
MAIL_HOST=mailgun
MAIL_PORT=587
MAIL_USERNAME=postmaster@sandboxcd***.mailgun.org
MAIL_PASSWORD=e***3
MAIL_ENCRYPTION=null
MAILGUN_DOMAIN=sandboxcd***.mailgun.org
MAILGUN_SECRET=key-***e

and in my services.php :

'mailgun' => [
    'domain' => env('MAILGUN_DOMAIN'),
    'secret' => env('MAILGUN_SECRET'),
],

But I get something like this :

1/1 Swift_TransportException in StreamBuffer.php line 269: Connection could not be established with host mailgun [php_network_getaddresses: getaddrinfo failed: No such host is known. #0]
in StreamBuffer.php line 269
at Swift_Transport_StreamBuffer->_establishSocketConnection() in StreamBuffer.php line 62
at Swift_Transport_StreamBuffer->initialize(array('protocol' => '', 'host' => 'mailgun', 'port' => '2525', 'timeout' => '30', 'blocking' => '1', 'tls' => false, 'type' => '1', 'stream_context_options' => array())) in AbstractSmtpTransport.php line 113
at Swift_Transport_AbstractSmtpTransport->start() in Mailer.php line 79

You haven't set the MAIL_DRIVER as I said.

Currently you're setting the MAIL_HOST, they aren't the same!

@mstnorris then what should go in the mail host?

Leave it out, you don't need it as you're letting Mailgun take care of it :)

Thanks @mstnorris but I have the development environment setup using WAMP and I do have curl installed but it seems some sort of SSL certificate is required. Would you be able to shed some light about it?

cURL error 60: SSL certificate problem: unable to get local issuer certificate (see http://curl.haxx.se/libcurl/c/libcurl-errors.html)

Is the secret within services.php the api key?

@lars64 no the secret key will be on you mailgun account. It is not within the files.

@yeshwanthvshenoy I understand that. But if I look into mailgun I only see:

State
Active
IP Address
SMTP Hostname
Default SMTP Login
Default Password
API Base URL
API Key

@lars64 have a look in your here : https://mailgun.com/app/dashboard . If you scroll down to the bottom, there will be something like public api key and secret api key. That would be the secret key you need to provide. In your answer's list, the last one API key is the same as I am referring to.

@yeshwanthvshenoy awesome thanks works for me!

@yeshwanthvshenoy have you got it working?

I don't see what the problem is?

@mstnorris No brother it seems curl needs some sort of SSL certificate to send mails. First it seemed to complain about lack of curl on my machine. I installed it now it says SSL is missing.

Please answer the following:

1. What OS are you using: Windows 7, 8 etc, macOS?
2. Are you using Laravel Homestead? I think I saw you mention earlier that you're using WAMP
3. What is the exact error message you're receiving?

@mstnorris

OS is Windows 10. Yes, WAMP. The full error would be:
