"Many also stop you from using your own SMTP server (altho I don't understand why)."
Spam countermeasures, they usually block the port.
If you do follow up with this idea you will also have to find ways to prevent spam. Very troublesome.
- retube 16y agoif its paid-for, with a monthly massage cap for example, this would be effective spam prevention no?
- jacquesm 16y agoNo. What you'll get is tons of people subscribing to your service, you'll be so happy. Then they start using your service, right up to that cap, and you're still happy. Then two months later the chargebacks start rolling in and you're dead in the water. Curing spam on a service like this will take a lot more than just a message cap, you'll have to think this through very carefully because spammers have been at this much longer than you have. They'll eat you alive if you're not careful.
- retube 16y agook yes - you need excellent debit/credit card fraud prevention/detection. There are ways to mitigate this risk tho I think, at a cost obviously.
