## Inbound
Email sending is not the only important part, you also need to keep track of things like email opens, clicks, unsubscribes, bounces and complaints. Edesy Email automatically takes care of opens, clicks and unsubscribes for you, but bounces and complaints require webhooks from Mailgun.

To setup inbound webhooks, do the following:
1. Open the [Mailgun console](https://app.mailgun.com) and go to `Sending -> Webhooks`
2. Pick the domain you will be using in the top right and then click `Add Webhook`
3. Select `Permanent Failure` and enter the Edesy Email Mailgun unsubscribe URL for your provider (which can be found on the provider details screen)
4. Hit `Create Webhook`
5. Repeat this process two more times for the webhook event types `Temporary Failure` and `Spam Complaints`
6. You can optionally copy the HTTP webhook signing key to make the process more secure. We recommend doing this as it takes little to no effort. You can find this key on the right hand side of that same page, just enter it on the Edesy Email provider under Webhook Signing Key and hit save.
