Has anyone successfully set up msmtp with a Mailgun account? I keep getting "Relaying denied", and msmtp reports that the envelope from is invalid. I have tried every variation of the from address that I can think of, scoured Mailgun's documentation for details on their SMTP parameters, and searched the web for examples, and I've not found anything that differs from my setup (aside from server and account names, of course).
Here is my /etc/msmtprc file,
account default
# The SMTP smarthost
host smtp.mailgun.org
# Use TLS on port 465
port 465
tls on
tls_starttls off
user [email protected]
password [snip]
from [email protected]
# Syslog logging with facility LOG_MAIL instead of the default LOG_USER
syslog LOG_MAIL
And the msmtp session:
$ echo 'Subject: Grfg' | msmtp -v '[email protected]'
loaded system configuration file /etc/msmtprc
ignoring user configuration file /home/me/.msmtprc: No such file or directory
falling back to default account

It turned out to be that I needed to set auth on in the msmtp configuration. The error envelope from address [email protected] not accepted by the server from msmtp was completely wrong.
