# Mailgunny - Mailgun bounce processing.
Mailgun is one of many emailing services (e.g. SMTP relays). While many services
offer to send all your bounced email to a particular email address (e.g. so
CiviCRM can process bounces), Mailgun does not.
However, Mailgun can be configured to send bounce information directly to
CiviCRM using webhooks, enabling the normal CiviMail mailing reports.
This extension provides this functionality.
The extension is licensed under [AGPL-3.0](LICENSE.txt).
## Requirements
* PHP v7.0+
* CiviCRM 5.x (tested with 5.8.1)

## Usage
### Step 1: configure your webhooks at Mailgun
Log in to mailgun's website and find the Webhooks page.
For **Permanent Failure** and **Temporary Failure** events, enter the webhook
URL for your site, which will look like:
- Drupal 7: `https://example.com/civicrm/mailgunny/webhook`
- Wordpress: `https://example.com/?page=CiviCRM&q=civicrm/mailgunny/webhook`
- Joomla: `https://example.com/index.php?option=com_civicrm&task=civicrm/mailgunny/webhook`
### Step 2: enter your Mailgun API key
Nb. the API key is *not* your Mailgun password (nor your domain's SMTP
password). You can find it on the page for your domain on the Mailgun admin
interface.
Once you've got it, visit the settings page at:
- Drupal 7: `https://example.com/civicrm/mailgunny/settings`
- Wordpress: `https://example.com/?page=CiviCRM&q=civicrm/mailgunny/settings`
- Joomla: `https://example.com/index.php?option=com_civicrm&task=civicrm/mailgunny/settings`
Put it in the box and press Save.
Right, you're all set.
## Hey what's with the name?
Gunny is a strong coarse material. Such that you might make sacks out of. Like
post/mail sacks. And this is about mailings. So Mailgunny. And, what we're
**not** interested in at all is guns, so it's a deliberate subversion of
Mailgun's name. After all, who wants to be shot by email?
