I need to set up programmatic email for Techaro. What services do you hate the least? I may just go with SES.
@cadey postmark. I've been using it for years now and it has always been excellent.
@cadey SES, I use it for my mailing lists and Sendy.
@cadey Never had any issues with Mailgun in the past 10 years, though I can't really judge if they've still been holding up in the last 2.5.
@cadey postmarkapp.com has been absolutely great

@cadey SES or I think Purelymail is chill with transactional stuff if you're not spamming newsletters

(Purelymail is also just SES in a trenchcoat)

@cadey I’ve been using Mailgun for a long time and been happy, but I think they’ve crippled their free service for new accounts. SES seems OK. Sendgrid used to have onboarding systems which made it too easy for spammers to impersonate you if you used them, dunno if they still do.
@cadey (basically: Sendgrid used to not do domain control checks at onboarding and allowed the same domain to be in multiple accounts, so any spammer could sign up and send e-mail from any Sendgrid using domain which passed SPF)
