Hi, i try to use mailgun for handling the newsletter mail transfer on a wordpress site with Mailpoet plugin.

I create a subdomain on vesta, follow the instructions on Mailgun and add the necessary records like this:

On Mailguns page CNAME and MX records are verified but TXT records are still not.

I use default dns template for subdomain. Should i remove something or choose different settings. The main domain use google apps dns for mail handling. Whats the best way to achieve that.

Thanks

Not sure if you ever solved this, but for anyone else reading you need to ignore mailgun and add your SPF and DomainKey records in quotations, e.g.:

Code: Select all

"v=spf1 include:mailgun.org ~all"
NOT:

Code: Select all

v=spf1 include:mailgun.org ~all
Hope that helps.
