## What it is
The official Mailgun SDK for PHP, a PSR-18 HTTP client wrapper around the Mailgun email API. It lets PHP applications send, track, and manage transactional email, plus IP management, analytics, subaccounts, and email validation.

## Use cases
- send transactional email from a PHP app
- integrate Mailgun email API into Laravel or Symfony
- send emails with attachments and tracking
- validate email addresses before sending
- schedule email delivery
- manage IP pools and subaccounts via API

## When to choose
- you use PHP and Mailgun as your email provider
- you want a PSR-18 compatible client with any HTTP library
- you need official, maintained SDK support

## When to avoid
- you use a different email provider
- your project is not PHP
- you need SMTP-only sending without API features

## Facets
- artifact type: library
- maturity: active
- function: http-client, email, sdk
- domain: email, apis, developer-tools, backend
- platform: php
- tags: mailgun, transactional-email, psr-18, email-api, email-validation, smtp, web-server
