HMAC-SHA256 of timestamp+token (HTTP webhook signing key) verification
Paste your signing secret once — HookSense verifies every Mailgun request automatically.
One-click replay
Send any captured webhook back to your local server or production — rerun your handler without triggering new events.

- Mailgun's signature lives in the body, not a header: HMAC-SHA256 of (timestamp + token) keyed by the HTTP webhook signing key
- The signing key is separate from your API key — find it under Settings → Webhooks
- Cache the token and reject duplicates to prevent replay attacks; loosely check the timestamp for freshness
- Use HookSense Replay to retest delivery and bounce handling without sending real email
