About

Basic

The 25space.com Mail API provides an interface to send html POST data (like forms) securely via email. Insert the HTML form, with custom fields as necessary, into your web page or application. Do you know the problem, your messages from the contact form are not delivered safely, the order or the HTML POST eMail application eMails end up in spam? With MailAPI you can connect any application (HTML form POST) and your emails will be delivered safely.

Book the service "MailAPI", it will be available in a few minutes under "Applications". Add the secret and app-id displayed there to the POST URL to identify your application.

<script>
var acc = document.getElementsByClassName("accordionrekla");
var i;

for (i = 0; i < acc.length; i++) {
  acc[i].addEventListener("click", function() {
    this.classList.toggle("active");

}
</script>

Connector

Connect your form against the following connector:

Default/Standard:
https://mailout.25space.com/ses/connectorv2.php
Using like: https://mailout.25space.com/ses/connectorv2.php?appid=**YOURAPPID**&secret=**YOURSECRET**

Note: there are older connectors that are either called via the old domain "mail-out.mdct-group.com" or subsequent ones. We ask you explicitly not to use them anymore. A secure operation can only be ensured with the one listed above.

~~connector.php~~
~~connectorNEW.php~~
~~connectorv2protect.php~~

Spam-Protection

We provide an additional spam-protection service against spam messages (for ex. contact-forms).
To enable this protection you can setup this in the Cloud Management Suite. Please login and select Applications > MailAPI > Spam-Protection. See the screenshot below:
Spam Protection for Mail API - 25Space.com

After you have activated the spam protection, messages with corresponding content are filtered in the best possible way, a "false-positive" behaviour cannot be excluded. You will not be informed about filtered messages.

Note: by October 2020 all MailAPI services are per-default setting spam-protected. As well the former "protection endpoint" is no longer needed/valid (see endpoints above).

Mail-Address

Since June 2020, the sender is "no-reply@mailout.on25space.com" for all forms and endpoints.

The old mail is no longer valid: ~~"no-reply@mail-out.mdct-group.com".~~

Reply TO

So far your mail system is supporting the replyTO head-tag, we set the sender of the message in this value. Which results, that you can use the default REPLY button in your mail-software if you receive such a message.

From: Mail Notification Service "no-reply@mailout.on25space.com"
Reply-To: sender.mail@example.com

Abuse and Reporting

We take this topic very seriously and are taking some extensive measures to provide transparency here.
In addition to the measures against spam and other technical attacks described above, we have integrated a reporting option in every e-mail.

You can report every mail via the link, shown in the screenshot below:
Report Spam Mail

Upload and Attachement

Each mail API can also process attachments and data. This will be linked in the mail and is available for download for up to two weeks.
For security reasons, we do not send the transmitted file as an attachment in the mail. This is only available as a download link.

We allow the following type of files:
'pdf', 'docx', 'xlsx', 'pptx', 'jpg', 'jpeg', 'png', 'gif', 'zip', 'txt', 'csv'

Please note, if you want to use the file-upload - the header needs to be include "form-data" options:


<form method="post" enctype="multipart/form-data" action="https://mailout.25space.com/ses/connectorv2.php?appid=APPID&secret=SECRET">

Mail Description

For a better understanding of the individual variables (var*) a description can be added to the mail by a title.
In doing so, add "title*" variables in the URL, below is an example:


https://mailout.25space.com/ses/connectorv2.php?appid=APPID&secret=SECRET&title1=ExampleText&title2=ExampleText&title3=ExampleText&title4=ExampleText

Creator

You can use the form below to create the FORM-POST URL.
This includes description and upload features.

CAPTCHA

Intro

To prevent a huge amount of spam email via the contact form (or similar app), we strongly recommended to install a captcha service to block bots. We allow to implement own captcha solutions or services in the form.
reCAPTCHA is a free service from Google that protects your website from spam and abuse. reCAPTCHA uses an advanced risk analysis engine and adaptive challenges to keep automated software from engaging in abusive activities on your site.
You will find information in our docs >

GDPR

We assume no liability and legal advice, you will find information in our docs >

Implementation

Below you will find a documentation, how to implement the reCAPTCHA (v2) service to your form. Please create a Google Account and login at the Admin Console reCAPTCHA Admin Console >

Create a new V2 CAPTCHA
Add your domain/website
Save the site and secret key
Add the script below in your website header
Implement the HTML code below to your HTML from or application
Don't forget to clearify the topic about privacy and GDPR

Code

The script blog for your header
The script is for the basic implementation and is requided. The second part is, to tag the form part below as requided.


<script src="https://www.google.com/recaptcha/api.js" async defer></script>
<script>
window.onload = function() {
    var $recaptcha = document.querySelector('#g-recaptcha-response');

    if($recaptcha) {
        $recaptcha.setAttribute("required", "required");
    }
};
</script>

The form part, please insert this between your "form" tags.
Please enter also your site key, which you get on the Google Admin Center.

										
<div class="g-recaptcha" data-sitekey="INSERTYOURSITEKEY"></div>
