Unable to send mail via Mailgun over api or smtp

I have setup a new account and not verified my domain. I would like to test and confirm mail-send before proceeding with verification and adding payment information.

I have tried curl using the sandbox method and api key (including smtp). I have also tried to use my domain using the top account mail-address as recipient. But each time the send command (both curl and smtp) I get "Mailgun Magnificent API" response - but no mail is delivered. So far the Mailgun API does not look so Magnificent... I have gone through the documentation multiple times and cannot find what I might be doing wrong..

Any help is much appreciated.

Faced the same issue while sending emails via api by php curl. I solved it by changing API Base URL https://api.mailgun.net/v3/YOUR_DOMAIN_NAME to https://api.mailgun.net/v3/YOUR_DOMAIN_NAME/messages. It's because their api is not only for sending. Hope this helps.
