This is what happens when a mail is supposede to be sent. (feedback form, confirmation mail for account, etc..)

I use external SMTP and everything is correct for settings, so I have no clue where can the problem be in Question2Answer.

The use of an external SMTP service could be blocked by your provider.

Try first to use your provider's SMTP service using real (=defined in your domain's Cpanel) email addresses for the "sender address" and the "email address for the admin messages"

I tested that before and shows me that there is no connectivity issue between the server and the mailgun server:

# telnet smtp.mailgun.org 465
Trying 50.56.21.178...
Connected to smtp.mailgun.org.
Escape character is '^]'.

So the only thing that may have the problem is Q2A. I see there are a lot of threads like this and none of it has a solution.

Thank you.

The port you should use (see : http://blog.mailgun.com/25-465-587-what-port-should-i-use/) is 587.
If that's blocked, the 2525.

Test them with my php file too.
