Overview
Connect Mailgun to Flipsnack, and the emails your flipbooks send come from your own domain instead of no-reply@flipsnackmail.com. This covers Shopping list order emails and the emails you send from the Send email page. You set it up under Branding, Email provider, on the Enterprise plan, with a verified Mailgun domain and a Mailgun API key.
To change what those emails say and how they look, see How to customize the emails Flipsnack sends to readers.
