🐞 Bug: Forgot Password Email Not Being Delivered

📋 Description

While trying to create and log in as a merchant, the "Forgot Password" functionality appears broken — it says the email is sent (success response), but no actual email is received.

---

🔁 Reproduction Steps

1. Seeded the database to create an admin user.
2. Used admin to approve a new merchant.
   • Note: No password was set for the merchant at creation.
3. Tried to reset the merchant password using the “Forgot Password” flow.
4. Received success message: “Email sent” (see network tab screenshot).
5. But no email arrived in the mailbox.

---

🧠 Observations

• The resetPWDToken field is getting created in the DB for the merchant user, so backend logic partially works.
• The environment is set up with valid Mailgun API keys and domain (see .env screenshot).
• No errors in browser dev tools or backend logs.
• Network request to forgot password endpoint returns 200 OK.

❓ What Help I Need

• Can someone confirm if the Mailgun integration is working as expected?
• Where to check logs or failures in email delivery? (e.g., backend logs or Mailgun dashboard?)
• What is the recommended way to set an initial password for a merchant, especially if created via admin with no password field?
• Any known issues with the email template or sending function?

---

💻 Environment

• OS: Windows 11
• Browser: Edge
• Backend Service: Node.js (with Mailgun integration)
• Mail Provider: Mailgun

---

✅ Additional Suggestions (Optional)

• Add an option to manually set a password during merchant approval by admin.
• Improve error handling or email delivery confirmation in backend logs.

I will be very thankful if you check this out yourself and accept my PR.
also there are two other bugs I found so far and willing to voluntarily work on them.
(wrong path in the email and wrong mailgun keys missing consoles ,which is confused against mailchimp).
