Mailgun to Gmail and reply
email, gmail, mailgun
Solution
A better way is to just let Gmail do the receiving by putting MX records in Route53 that points to Google's mail servers.
For the sending, put in a TXT record that lets both Gmail and Mailgun send out emails on behalf of your domain:
"v=spf1 include:_spf.google.com include:mailgun.org ~all"
Also you may want to enable DKIM for signing your emails.
Problem
I have a website example.com and I want my customers to be able to send emails to `support@example.com`. I am used to using Gmail so I would like to receive all emails to my gmail account: `me@gmail.com` and reply to my customers using the Gmail interface. I am trying to use Mailgun and Amazon's Route 53 to make this all happen. In one direction I would like to make this work: some_customer@yahoo.com --> support@example.com --> Mailgun --> (transforms the sender address "some_customer@yahoo.com" to some "middleman@mailgun.com") --> me@gmail.com In other words, when the customer sends `support@example.com` an email, it reaches my Gmail inbox. In the other direction, when I am replying to my customer using my Gmail web interface that I am familiar with: me@gmail.com --> middleman@mailgun.com --> Mailgun --> (transforms the sender address "me@gmail.com" to "support@example.com") --> some_customer@yahoo.com In the second step, since I want to reply to the customer, I just reply to `middleman@mailgun.com` and Mailgun will simply change my gmail address to `support@example.com` before forwarding it to my customer. Can this be done? If so, how? Thanks,
