I am working on a web application that will replace the existing one. This existing one is running on a different server, and its domain name synergy-croatia.com. Now I have a new application already hosted on Heroku ( synergy-croatia.herokuapp.com), and now I need to have the domain synergy-croatia.compoint to my Heroku application. But there is one more thing that I need to implement - you guessed it - to receive emails.
I want to receive emails sent to email addresses, for example info@synergy-croatia.com. So, I did a lot of Googling, and I came across some good solutions. But each solution implies that I have my own domain for which I need to set some DNS settings. I mean, I have this ( synergy-croatia.com), but obviously I can only use it after . I am finishing my application.
Does this mean that I have to buy a domain so that I can implement the reception of letters? Can I somehow set these DNS settings ( MXes and others) directly on the Heroku subdomain? Or is there another way?
UPDATE:
One solution I found was, of course, the following: http://nanceskitchen.com/2010/02/21/accept-incoming-emails-into-a-heroku-app-using-sendgrid/
But this requires a custom domain.
UPDATE 2:
This is important, I forgot to mention it. I just want these email addresses to be virtual in order to forward emails to real email addresses.
