[FIXED] When use AWS Lambda to process mails from mailgun, can't get mails in JSON format

Issue

What I am tried to do is to have a lambda function proccess emails forwarded by mailgun.

So far, I have setup mailgun's route so it will forward emails to a AWS api gateway, then the api gateway triggers a lambda function.

The problem comes when I try to process the mail, instead of getting a pretty Json that I am expecting inside the lambda's event.body, I m getting raw post form data like

--cff4e6b3-a3a4-4131-bb8d-90a73f1b4c36\r\nContent-Disposition: form-data; name=\"Content-Type\"\r\n\r\nmultipart/mixed; boundary=\"001a1140216cee404d05440c49e7\"\r\n--cff4e6b3-a3a4-4131-bb8d-90a73f1b4c36\r\nContent-Disposition: form-data; name=\"Date\"\r\n\r\nTue, 20 Dec 2016 13:40:53 +1300\r\n--cff4e6b3-a3a4-4131-bb8d-90a73f1b4c36\r\nContent ......

My question is, what should I do to get the JSON version of the forwarded emails in lambda?

Solution

Not sure if you ever came to a solution, but I have this working with the following settings.

1. Setup your API Gateway method to use "Use Lambda Proxy integration"
2. In your lambda (I use node.js) use busboy to work through the multi-part submission from mailgun. (use this post for help with busboy Busboy help)
3. Make sure that any code you are going to execute after all busboy is complete is executed in the 'finish' portion of the busboy code.

[FIXED] How to use a custom SMTP settings in my WordPress site

Issue

I need to use custom SMTP settings for my WordPress site to send email through my email servers such as Mailgun or SendGrid.

Solution

Place this in your theme function.php or your own plugin.

add_action( 'phpmailer_init', 'custom_phpmailer_init' );
function custom_phpmailer_init( $phpmailer ) {

    $phpmailer->isSMTP();
    $phpmailer->Host = 'smtp.mailgun.com';
    $phpmailer->Port = 465;
    $phpmailer->Username = 'user_name';
    $phpmailer->Password =  '********';
    $phpmailer->SMTPAuth = true;
    $phpmailer->SMTPSecure = 'ssl';
    $phpmailer->From       = 'FromName@example.com';
    $phpmailer->FromName   = 'FromName';

}

[FIXED] Laravel won't pass my domain to the MailGun driver so I can't send mail

Issue

This may not be a problem with MailGun as I was unable to send via Gmail aswell.

The error i'm getting as seen below you can see where the domain should be passed but hasn't.

POST https://api.mailgun.net/v3//messages.mime

the domain should be

POST https://api.mailgun.net/v3/domin/messages.mime

I know I have Guzzle installed, I have restated the web server and i know my details are correct. I'v created a test project to do only mail aswell to no avail.

Could it be something todo with my host computer (macbook air) or that fact i'm using the development web server

 php artisan serve

I'm new to Laravel so i'm unsure of anything else I can do.

services.php

  'mailgun' => [
        'domain' => env('sandbox*****.mailgun.org'),
        'secret' => env('key-**************'),
    ],

mail.php

'driver' => env('MAIL_DRIVER', 'mailgun'),
'host' => env('MAIL_HOST', 'smtp.mailgun.org'),
 'port' => env('MAIL_PORT', 587),
'from' => ['address' => null, 'name' => null],
 'encryption' => env('MAIL_ENCRYPTION', 'tls'),
 'username' => env('postmaster@sandbox***********.mailgun.org'),
  'password' => env('sandboxpassword'),
 'sendmail' => '/usr/sbin/sendmail -bs',
 'pretend' => env('MAIL_PRETEND', false),

A've stopped using the env file so it defaults to the mail.php, but when the attributes are the same details it's the same outcome. And yeah just incase its asked i'm aware you need to restart the server when you've changed the .env and just to be on the safe site i've been doing it when changing the mail.php or services.php

TestController.php

<?php

namespace App\Http\Controllers;

use Illuminate\Http\Request;
use Mail;
use App\Http\Requests;
use App\Http\Controllers\Controller;

class TestController extends Controller
{
    public function index() {
        Mail::raw('Text to e-mail', function ($message) {
            $message->from('us@example.com', 'Laravel');

            $message->to('dksnowdon@gmail.com');
        });

        return view('welcome');
    }
}

the exact error

Solution

You need to leave the services.php config as default:

'mailgun' => [
        'domain' => env('MAILGUN_DOMAIN'),
        'secret' => env('MAILGUN_SECRET'),
    ],

Then in the .env you need to put:

MAILGUN_DOMAIN=yourdomain
MAILGUN_SECRET=yoursecret
