# Mailgun Mailer

## Mailgun Mailer Driver Settings

[Mailgun](https://www.mailgun.com/) is a transactional email service used by developers and information technology professionals to send, receive, and track emails using its powerful Application Program Interface (API).

Mailgun requires that your email server be registered with their service. Therefore, prior to configuring your email server to use Mailgun, ensure that have registered with their service and you have received the Mailgun domain name and secret for your email server.

## Configure Mailgun Mailer Driver Settings

**Permissions**

Your user account or group membership must have the "Settings: Update Settings" permission to edit email server settings unless your user account has the **Make this user a Super Admin** setting selected.

See the [Settings](/v1/docs/permission-descriptions-for-users-and-groups#settings) permissions or ask your Administrator for assistance.

To configure a Mailgun email server, the following information is needed:

- Mailgun secret
