Mailgun is one of the infrastructure providers that actually sends the mail, so this is a hands-on, technically accurate walkthrough of what each DNS record does and how to add it, not marketing copy. Use it as your step-by-step when you are actually setting up SPF, DKIM, and DMARC for a new domain rather than just reading about the concepts.
