Django Configuration

If you want to use django-postmark as your default backend, you should add:

EMAIL_BACKEND = "postmark.backends.PostmarkBackend"

to your settings.py

Settings

django-postmark adds 1 required setting and 2 optional settings.

Required:

Specifies the api key for your postmark server.:

POSTMARK_API_KEY = 'POSTMARK_API_TEST'

Optional:

Specifies a username and password that the view will require to be passed in via basic auth. (http://exampleuser:examplepassword@example.com/postmark/bounce/):

POSTMARK_API_USER = "exampleuser"
POSTMARK_API_PASSWORD = "examplepassword"

Postmark Bounce Hook

Postmark has the optional ability to POST to an url anytime a message you have sent bounces. django-postmark comes with an urlconf and view for this purpose. If you wish to use this then add:

url(r"^postmark/", include("postmark.urls")),

to your root urls.py. This will cause your bounce hook location to live at /postmark/bounce/. Then simply add in the url to your Postmark settings (with the username and password specified by POSTMARK_API_USER/PASSWORD if set) and django will accept POSTS from Postmark notifying it of a new bounce.
