How to use mailgun on prestashop as custom SMTP

[giwrgos88]

I want to setup my own SMTP parameters using the mailgun service. I'm inserting the correct information but it shows me the error "Error: Please check your configuration

Authentication failed using username '[email protected]' and password '*******************************'", when I'm pressing testing email

This is late, but I found this article while looking for the same answer & didn't find anything relevant.

 

• Go under Advanced Parameters --> Email
• Select "Set my own SMTP parameters (For advanced users ONLY)"
• Under "Email" section with the little cogs fill in your Mailgun credentials:
• Mail domain name: yourdomain.com
• SMTP server: smtp.mailgun.org
• SMTP username: whatever username is given in the Mailgun control panel
• SMTP password: PW given by Mailgun
• Encryption: SSL or TLS
• Port: 465 <-- MAKE SURE THIS PORT IS OPEN IN YOUR FIREWALL. Use port 25 for non-SSL & 587 for TLS.
• Save, then test. You should be able to see whether or not the email was successfully delivered from your Mailgun logs.

I don't know if it made a difference, but you may also want to set up mail relay on your server for good measure - https://community.rackspace.com/products/f/28/t/63

For Prestashop 1.7.4.X
Go to
Configure > Advanced Parameters > E-mail

Then "tick" on "Set my own SMTP parameters (for advanced users ONLY)"

Then enter the data as below

Mail domain name: Enter your mail domain name here
SMTP server: smtp.mailgun.org
SMTP username: email address shown on mailgun.com (eg: [email protected])
SMTP password: shown on mailgun.com
Encryption: SSL (select from drop-down menu)
Port: 465

They click "Save"

After "Save" you can test it using "Send a test email" option.

I've attached print screen image to this post.
It will help you to understand easily.

* If you use MailGun you need to enter your card details, But they charge after rich 10,000 emails limit.
