Connect Mailgun (Transactional Email & Domains) MCP to VS Code Copilot
Create your Vinkius account to connect Mailgun (Transactional Email & Domains) to VS Code Copilot and route execution through our secure gateway. The platform manages server hosting, runtime updates, and security layers. Configuration requires no manual server provisioning.
Shared team email testing using this MCP Server
Commit your `.vscode/mcp.json` config to the repository to let your whole team use this MCP Server. Developers can run `send_email` directly from Copilot Chat to verify template rendering. The team can also fetch shared layouts with `get_templates` to ensure local code matches the latest production designs without logging into the Mailgun web UI.
Debug production delivery issues in Copilot Chat
When troubleshooting customer tickets, ask Copilot to run `list_logs` to find specific delivery events. You can filter by recipient address to see exactly when an email was dropped or bounced. If a customer is on the suppression list, use `list_bounces` to locate the block. You can then call `delete_bounce` to clear it, resolving the customer's issue without leaving your editor.
Monitor sending domains and DNS settings
Keep tabs on your production domains using `list_domains` in your chat window. Copilot can check domain verification status and flag issues before they impact deliverability. Run `get_domain` to inspect DKIM and SPF records directly. You can also fetch sending metrics using `get_stats` to verify that your bounce rates are within safe limits.
