Hi,

I’m trying to use the EmailSender component, but I can 't get it to work.

I’m using a [mailgun.com](http://mailgun.com) account, I can send mail via the smtp server using the Apple Mail program, but not via Clover. I get this error:

--------------------------------- Error details ----------------------------------  
Component [EmailSender:EMAIL\_SENDER] finished with status ERROR. (In0: 0 recs)  
Component pre-execute initialization failed.  
EMAIL\_SENDER SMTP connection failure  
535 5.7.0 Mailgun is not loving your login or password  
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------

I’ve tried varous SSL/STARTTLS settings but can’t get it to work.

Are there any know issues with mailgun?

Thanks

John

Hi John,

I was able to reproduce your issue on my end, I have found that the EmailSender was able to send emails from a Mailgun account. I found that the error occurs when I have an incorrect password or username. If your issue continues please send me your graph (remove any sensitive data please), I would like to take a look at your EmailSender settings.

Regards,
