Paubox: Setup and Functionality

Welkin utilizes PauBox as their HIPAA compliant email solution. PauBox is used in conjunction with MailGun – both services will need to be configured in order to send HIPAA compliant email.

To review the MailGun setup and configuration – please review the MailGun Implementation Checklist

PauBox is configured by Welkin – the only task required to be completed by clients are the changes to the DNS records of your domain. A Welkin team member will send an email with the required changes to be made and will update you upon successful completion of the configuration.
