Specs / Info:
Ubuntu 20.04 on VPS
Ghost 4.27.2 (also persisted in 4.25.x) :Port 2368
NGINX 1.18.0
Mailgun
UFW disabled (for troubleshooting)
I get the “Email failed to send when publishing this post. Please verify your email settings if the error persists. / Error: Email service is currently unavailable - please try again” error when trying to send a post to 75 paying subscribers.
- Transactional (SMTP) emails work fine for password resets, etc.
- My Mailgun account is NOT on probation. It was at first, but Mailgun has since lifted it
JSON config:
“mail”: {
“transport”: “SMTP”,
“options”: {
“service”: “Mailgun”,
“host”: “smtp.mailgun.org”,
“auth”: {
“user”: “postmaster@mail.[DOMAIN].com”,
“pass”: “[PASS]”
}
}
},
Does anyone see any problems I’m missing here? Mailgun tells me they’ve lifted the rate limit on my account to allow for more than 10 emails being sent at once, but I still can’t mail out to my subscribers en masse. I can send fewer than 10 emails at once, however. It almost feels like I’m still being limited by Mailgun but I’m new to Ghost so maybe I’m missing something.
My Mailgun domain is green and verified in terms of DNS settings
The failure to send does not create an event in my production.error.log file.
Any ideas?
