Pay for Sendgrid (100 / day for free is not enough) VS set up your own email server?
For own email server, do you not get flagged a lot as spam ?
You must log in or register to comment.
I wouldnt say that. however setting uo your own mail server is a lot of work, as you have to abide a lot of “security” rules (SPF, DKIM, DMARC, rDNS). Additionally some hosters reuire you to apply for port 25 to be unblocked (e.g. hetzner)
The set up isn’t actually hard at all, if you understand the concepts. Keeping off blacklists is the hard part, as big providers often block entire IP ranges due to one bad actor.
I’m piggybacking off of a mail server for a domain I run. My instance is small though so I’m not worried about a flood of emails.
