Out of curiousity (either I missed it or I forgot) what was the Mandrill incident?

  Mandrill became part of the Mailchimp subscription. Only for paid accounts. Basically making costs for low-traffic projects way higher than they used to be if you didn't use Mailchimp with Mandrill. (Mailchimp subscriptions start at 10 $ a month) https://mandrill.zendesk.com/hc/en-us/articles/217467117 https://mandrill.zendesk.com/hc/en-us/articles/217467117

    Not to mention they changed their volume pricing - we had to switch because our costs were going to quadruple.

    I got burned by Mandrill as well, even though I pay Mailchimp $59 a month. After all the hate mail they recieved they opened up a free Mandrill plan if you are a paying Mailchimp customer. Who knows how long that will last though. Basically I just recommend Mailgun or AWS SES now.
