plyblu c1f7bce304 Update notify.mailgun.markdown (#6142)
* Update notify.mailgun.markdown

Fix inconsistency where "domain" is required in the Mailgun Component https://www.home-assistant.io/components/mailgun/ but "sandbox" can also be used to specify the domain.  It appears that the package https://github.com/pschmitt/pymailgunner in  def guess_domain(...) allows multiple domains and "sandbox" can be used to choose a sandbox domain over a normal domain.  As far as I can tell, this feature isn't used by the Mailgun component.  Also removed all references to the obsolete word "token" to avoid confusion.  Also used a different name for the notify service to differentiate it from the mailgun component.  Note: There are also updates to the aforementioned Mailgun Component doc.

* There is no need for the postfix
