Never thought of using a third-party relay SMTP server. That's a great idea.
Gmail has a relay [0][1], but I'm not sure if it's still free now that the G Suite free tier is gone.
Amazon SES [2] has competitive pricing, or it's free (first 62,000 emails per month) if you're using EC2 for sending email.
Then there's a bunch of marketing oriented SMTP providers that have free tiers. E.g. mailjet [3].

- morpheuskafka 8y agoMost people's ISP these days is AWS/GCP/Azure, so that's not an option for most anymore.
- dmos62 8y agoYeah, but I don't have a long-term ISP. Anyway, I don't see any disadvantage in using a non-ISP SMTP relay.
