The export completion email toggle saves immediately. Change it only when you are ready to update the account's export email behavior.

Configure Mailgun Delivery

Use Mailgun delivery when your organization wants to send from its own Mailgun account. Leave these fields blank when you want to use Gratona delivery.

Mailgun delivery can include:

  • SMTP Hostname

  • SMTP Login

  • SMTP Password

  • API Key

Mailgun delivery can use your organization's SMTP credentials and API key, or remain blank to use Gratona delivery.
Mailgun delivery can use your organization's SMTP credentials and API key, or remain blank to use Gratona delivery.

After Mailgun secrets are saved, Gratona does not display the saved password or API key in the form. Blank password and API key fields do not mean the saved secret is visible or removed.

The Mailgun status shows the current delivery state:

  • Using Gratona delivery means custom Mailgun delivery is not configured.

  • API key saved means the API key is saved for provider logs and troubleshooting, while Gratona delivery remains available until SMTP hostname, login, and password are complete.

  • Configured means Mailgun delivery is configured with the required SMTP settings.

Use Save Mailgun when the Mailgun settings are ready. This saves only the Mailgun delivery section.

Use Reset in this section when you want to restore unsaved Mailgun edits. Resetting Mailgun fields does not reset sender identity.

If Mailgun is configured, Use Gratona delivery appears in the sender identity section. Select it once to review the confirmation state. Select Confirm use Gratona delivery only when you intend to clear custom Mailgun delivery and return to Gratona delivery.
