Installation

If you’re using a multi-database installation (with or without dbfilter option) where /web/databse/selector returns a list of more than one database, then you need to add mail_tracking_mailgun addon to wide load addons list (by default, only web addon), setting --load option.

Example: --load=web,mail_tracking,mail_tracking_mailgun

Configuration

To configure this module, you need to:

1. Go to Mailgun, create an account and validate your sending domain.
2. Go back to Odoo.
3. Go to Settings > General Settings > Discuss > Enable mail tracking with Mailgun.
4. Fill all the values. The only one required is the API key.
5. Optionally click Unregister Mailgun webhooks and accept.
6. Click Register Mailgun webhooks.

You can also config partner email autocheck with this system parameter:

• mailgun.auto_check_partner_email: Set it to True.

Usage

In your mail tracking status screens (explained on module mail_tracking), you will see a more accurate information, like the ‘Received’ or ‘Bounced’ status, which are not usually detected by normal SMTP servers.

It’s also possible to make some checks to the partner’s email addresses against the Mailgun API:

• Check if the partner’s email is in Mailgun’s bounced list.
• Check the validity of the partner’s mailbox.
• Force the partner’s email into Mailgun’s bounced list or delete from it.

It’s also possible to manually check a message mailgun tracking when the webhook couldn’t be captured. For that, go to that message tracking form, press the button Check Mailgun. It’s important to note that tracking events have quite a short lifespan, so after 24h they won’t be recoverable.

Known issues / Roadmap

• There’s no support for more than one Mailgun mail server.
• Automate more webhook registration. It would be nice to not have to click the “Unregister Mailgun webhooks” and “Register Mailgun webhooks” when setting up Mailgun in Odoo. However, it doesn’t come without its conceptual complexities.
